Vernisage 19.11.2021 / 20:00 Just in time for the full moon in november, Hans-Jürgen Andersen celebrates the vernissage of his exhibition „Faszination des Seins und des Göttlichen“. He will present a selection of his painting-graphic collages at the Full Moon Gallery on 19 November 2021. The painter himself will accompany the evening musically on the guitar with self composed songs.Born in 1949, the poet, composer and painter graduated from the Dresden Academy of Music in 1975. In the same year he also began working as a freelance musician. He has been a member of the Künstlerbund Dresden e.V. since 2002.In the course of his work as a songwriter, Hans-Jürgen Andersen realised that not all his feelings and illusions could be captured in sound and words. So over time he developed into a two-way artist and devoted himself more and more to painting. With his unique technique, he brings life out of the most diverse materials. His fascination with being and the divine is poetically mirrored in his paintings.www.hja-kunst.de

27. February 2021 Peter Koch originally comes from the Baltic Sea and has been living in Dresden as a freelance artist for over 30 years. He moves very virtuously between painting and music. He enjoys every moment in which he can express his feelings in creativity. During his studies he built up contact with some well-known artists of the GDR such as Dieter Weidenbach, Horst Peter Meyer and Joachim Kuhlmann to learn from them. He focused on maritime impressions and moments of village life. Peter Koch loves aesthetics, likes to live and work by instinct and developed in recent years a penchant for the experimental.

21.09.2021 20:00 For the September full moon we’d like to invite you to the opening of our new exhibition at the Full Moon Gallery! On the 21st of September at 20:00, we are glad to open Anne Rosinski’s exhibition „Über die Zeichnung hinaus“ (engl.:“beyond drawing“).The visual artist Anne Rosinski sees her works as representations of emotional landscapes.Currently, the focus of her figurative work is on feeling and describing the surfaces of these emotional landscapes. In doing so, she adds graphic structures to the landscape representations that go far beyond the sketchy nature of an artistic drawing. The magic lies in the absolute freedom to accompany the fleeting moment of a line while blurring the boundaries between painting and drawing.The dissolution of the graphite material produces a multitude of shades and gradations of gray. A point condenses into a hatching and the paper becomes a source of light. Light and dark, proximity and distance begin to take shape.In the process, Rosinski’s works become a mirror of emotional inner spaces. www.anne-rosinski.de

A fusion event where art meets entrepreneurship at KulturCentrale on Saturday, August 21st at 20:00 This time you will have the chance to see the latest artworks of our Full Moon Gallery Artist, BENUZ. Benuz is a graffiti artist born in Mexico City in 1977 who first came into contact with graffiti through skateboarding. It didn’t take him long to realize that graffiti and street art would become his main passions. Benuz developed a unique and technically elaborate graffiti style based on calligraphy in the early 2000s. He integrated calligraphy into his style in a non-textual way by drawing new symbols which replace the written language, but still bear a resemblance to written texts. Throughout the years, Benuz has become quite known in the graffiti scene of Mexico being one of the calligraphy graffiti movement pioneers. Today, his avant-garde artworks are widely recognised within the worldwide urban art scene, and he has become a source of inspiration for many young and emerging graffiti and street artists all over the world. His upcoming exhibition at the Full Moon Gallery is entitled DAS EWIGE (engl. „The Eternal“). This exhibition is dedicated to the topic of cyclicality of time and how its results are incorporated into each epoch. And this is where ART meets ENTREPRENEURSHIP! Benuz did not just use any kind of paper for his artworks in our Full Moon Gallery exhibition, but a special grass paper produced by the young Dresden-based start-up “MATABOOKS”. The team of MATABOOKS are specialized in creating sustainable, vegan and environmentally friendly papers and books made of grass. CEO and founder Kay Hedrich will join us and give insight into how he founded and developed this green start-up and what it takes to conceive an idea and make it a successful business! And since this evening will not only be dedicated to art but also to entrepreneurship, the JKPeV team takes the chance to introduce you to one of our current projects, the “GAME-CHANGER” whose main aim is to build and further develop the entrepreneurial competences of those who aspire to become entrepreneurs. We will present you the learning resources that JKPeV together with our international partners have developed so that you get equipped with all necessary skills to start working in practice on your business idea! This is not just a simple Full Moon Gallery evening, it is an evening full of art, entrepreneurial spirit, and “food” for thought and action!  Save the date and join us!

24.07.2021 One year after her first exhibition at Full Moon Gallery, we’re excited to present to you the artist Jakyeong and her new exhibition „Totem“. Jakyeong‘s new artworks show ancient Korean totemic figures and self-created „Totems“ made with different materials and surprising light effects. She applied colours as reminiscence of old buddha temples, so that her figures look delightful and sweet. Moreover, figures like the tiger are strongly associated with Korean Folk Art. Her modern „Totem“ is an Assemblage work on canvas with wooden domino pieces and light band, which express the flow of blood. These colour works and effects describe the artist‘s nature and emotions. She is excited to express herself by constantly trying out new materials and experimenting with unusual effects. Jakyeong has lived in Bern, Switzerland and in Bologna, Italy. Currently she lives and works in Dresden. Exhibitions of Jakyeong took place in July 2018 at Luda Gallery in Seoul and in July 2019 in a private space in Zirtow.

17. July 2021 The new NACHTWESEN series of studio paintings created by Flux Wildly, is his first new studio work in the last 10 years. These paintings feature a previously un-used technique in his artworks. Some of these artworks are brand-new creations, while others have been found, scattered in various sketchbooks through time. The NACHTWESEN series has been created this way that saves the actual painting work for last.

Opening 24. Jun 2021 // 20.00 Die Bildkonstruktionen sind Endergebnisse von Übersetzungsarbeiten. Dabei versucht der Künstler Notationssysteme zu entwickeln, die hörbare Rhythmikgebilde sichtbar machen sollen.Jens Küster stand lange im Austausch mit Musikern, die nordindische Rhythmik in ihr musikalisches Konzept einbezogen und vertiefte dadurch sein Verständnis. Dieses Rhythmiksystem hat eine mehrere Jahrhunderte alte Tradition und so liegt sein derzeitiges Hauptaugenmerk im Anschauen und Entdecken von Verbindungslinien zur Jetztzeit, da er davon ausgeht, dass musikalische Konzepte Gesellschaftskonstruktionen spiegeln.

Und das beginnt für mich im Atelier und vor der eigenen Haustür. Viele denken, Abenteuer erlebt man nur, wenn man weit weg ist. Aber das stimmt nicht! Abenteuer kann ich überall erleben, ich muss sie nur entdecken und mich auf Ungewissheit einlassen, raus aus gewohnten Ritualen, was anderes machen. Ich experimentiere gerne mit Farbe und Form. Das Weiß des Malgrundes wird zur Herausforderung. Der erste Farbauftrag wird zum „Urknall“, aus dem sich alles weitere entwickelt. Die Assamblage erlaubt einen spielerischen Umgang mit den Mitteln. Alte Schichten werden teilweise entfernt, Reste von neuen Schichten überlagert. Wie unsere Erinnerungen, die teilweise vergessen oder umgedeutet und von neueren Erinnerungen verändert werden. Meine Arbeit ist prozessgebunden und das Ergebnis somit nicht vorhersehbar. Daher sind meine Bilder auch niemals „fertig“, vielmehr befinden sie sich in einem einstweiligen Zustand der Ruhe. Manche bleiben so. Andere hole ich nach einiger Zeit wieder hervor und überarbeite sie nochmals. Ob sie dadurch besser werden, weiß ich nicht. Für mich ist wichtig, dass sie sich verändern.

Tuesday (27/04/2021) was the April full moon and the exhibition of Joachim Rauch “About Beauty and Truth”. The exhibition is on display until May 4. Come by and take a look at the artwork.

In both form and color, he seeks expressive expression. He deals with nature in his landscape and mountain views. The human figure and the psychology of human existence is also a recurring theme in his works. His works are dedicated to truth, beauty, and pantheistic worldview.
