Schnittmuster: Art about Protection, Closeness, and Touch
The vernissage Schnittmuster – of Protection and Touch brings together the artistic positions of Isolde von Reusner and Franziska Lauber in the historic Sigismund Chapel at the Thon-Dittmer Palace. On October 27, 2026, the city of Regensburg will open an exhibition whose title already creates a tension between body, material, boundary, and human encounter.
Between Line, Surface, and Body
Isolde von Reusner works in various media of visual art: painting, graphics, illustration, photography, video, installation, and object art are part of her artistic field. Her works often revolve around humans in their actions and environment. Drawing and painting become precise observational instruments, while sculptural elements mark the transition from the two-dimensional surface into space.
Protection as Cultural and Physical Experience
The term pattern refers to order, repetition, and the creation of a form. At the same time, there is a physical dimension: clothing protects, conceals, touches the skin, and shapes our perception of our own body. The exhibition thus opens an art-historically interesting perspective on closeness and distance, on covering and vulnerability, and on the question of how personal experience is inscribed in painting, drawing, object, and installation.
The Exhibition Atmosphere of the Sigismund Chapel
The historic Sigismund Chapel provides a concentrated architectural framework for viewing the works. Between the sacral spatial effect and contemporary art, a special aesthetic experience emerges: lines, materials, and body concepts enter into a silent dialogue with light, architecture, and movement. The art experience thrives on the immediate encounter with the works and their effect in space.
Artistic Positions in Dialogue
Isolde von Reusner's artistic practice combines spontaneous observation, painterly condensation, and the exploration of material forms. In earlier works, human figures, movements, and social relationships were examined in reduced lines or expressive color fields. The joint presentation with Franziska Lauber promises a dialogue about touch as a physical, emotional, and social phenomenon.
Conclusion: An Exhibition for Attentive Eyes
Schnittmuster – of Protection and Touch invites you to perceive the boundaries between inside and outside, body and space, protection and openness anew. Art enthusiasts will experience a vernissage with contemporary painting, graphics, and object-based ways of thinking in an extraordinary historical setting. Those who wish to connect aesthetic experience, cultural education, and concentrated work contemplation should attend the opening in the Sigismund Chapel live.
