The Chiemgauhof Gallery
In our in-house gallery, guests can enjoy changing exhibitions that reflect the diversity of contemporary regional art.
"The story that we want to continue with the gallery began around 100 years ago when the painter Julius Exter set up a summer academy for young artists in a small hut by the lake. Our intention is to create a place of hospitality - combined with art," explains owner Ursula Schelle-Müller.
Drift
Drift shows sculptural works by Anna Hölzl and painterly works by Bokyeom Kwon. In a subtle dialogue, both artists address materiality, movement and perception: Hölzl shapes rigid materials such as glass and metal into flowing illusions, while Kwon uses acrylic and ink to create atmospheric color spaces between presence and absence. The exhibition invites visitors to rediscover the boundaries of form, surface and state.
With Drift, the Galerie im Chiemgauhof presents an impressive exhibition by artists Anna Hölzl and Bokyeom Kwon, which opens up a sensual dialog about materiality, aggregate states and the principle of fluidity.
Anna Hölzl works at the interface between illusion and reality. Her sculptures made of glass, metal and mirrors appear soft and flexible, yet are firm and precisely formed. Light and reflection blur the boundaries between surface and substance in her works - they challenge the viewer to question their own perception. With a keen sense of form and context, Hölzl stages a quiet poetry of the everyday that unites craft and concept.
Bokyeom Kwon, on the other hand, transports us into flowing color spaces with large-format canvases. In delicate layers of acrylic and ink, she creates compositions of meditative stillness - like fog that slowly thins or thickens. Her series Schweben, Glühen and Gelassenheit revolve around intermediate states: between energy and calm, presence and absence. Kwon's works seem like visual echoes of inner feelings.
In their interplay, Hölzl's sculptures and Kwon's paintings unfold a subtle dialog about movement and stasis, solidity and dissolution. Drift invites visitors to explore fluidity as a creative principle in material and color, form and space.
