Zinkenbacher Artists`Colony

The Zinkenbach Painters' Colony Museum is dedicated to artists who spent their summer holidays at Lake Wolfgang during the interwar period and is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year.

This year's anniversary exhibition shows the painters' colony in its social and political environment, from the fall of the monarchy to the dissolution of the artists' community due to political changes in 1938 and as an epilogue to the post-war period.
On display are works from the museum's own collection as well as loans from major museums and private collectors.

Summer Exhibition 2024

Lisel Salzer - Lisl Weil - Hilde Spiel
Three artists - three friends
Three artist friends are at the centre of the exhibition: the painter Lisel Salzer, the illustrator and performance artist Lisl Weil and the writer Hilde Spiel. The connections between these artists are close and multi-layered: Lisel Salzer paints Hilde Spiel, with whom she experiences a love affair with two Belgians during a summer in St. Wolfgang, an incident that provides the template for Hilde Spiel's novel Confusion at Lake Wolfgang. Lisel Salzer also paints Lisl Weil's family - the portraits are in the family's estate in New York and will be shown to the public for the first time in the exhibition.

The exhibition is open daily from 23 June to 13 October 2024 from 14:00 to 19:00!
