Art knows no boundaries
‘Kunst Salon Wien’ with Michael Fuchs and Gala Mischenko |
On the 27th of June 2024, the ‘Kunst Salon Wien’ hosted an impressive vernissage with the renowned artists Michael Fuchs and Gala Mischenko. The guests were presented with a diverse program in a cozy atmosphere.
In addition to the exhibition of artworks, there were also great live musical performances, involving the operatic singer Simone Long, accompanied on the piano by Robert Werner, the cellist Prof Miloserdov with piano accompaniment by Prof Igudesman and the Austropopper Michael Pobisch. The artistic evening was hosted by television presenter Oliver Feicht.
The guests included numerous Austrian entrepreneurs and prominent personalities such as plastic surgeon Dr Artur Worseg, ‘Mr Ferrari’ Heribert Kasper and artist Johann Rumpf.
At the vernissage, the works of Michael Fuchs, a representative of the Viennese school of fantastic realism, and the up-and-coming artist Gala were presented. Gala studied with Michael Fuchs to refine her painting technique. The master taught her the oil painting techniques of the old Renaissance masters and inspired her to dedicate her life to art.
As Gala put it, art symbolises the unity of different cultures and peoples. This language of peace and friendship is boundless and can overcome linguistic and national barriers, which contributes to mutual understanding.
Both artists, Michael Fuchs and Gala, were present at the vernissage and are already looking forward to their next joint art project in Sochi.

The exhibition "The Phenomenon of the Russian Woman" opened at the Vienna office of the United Nations
Vienna, March 6. /TASS correspondent Maxim Cherevik/. An exhibition of paintings by Russian artist Galina Mishchenko, dedicated to International Women’s Day, has opened at the headquarters of the United Nations Office in Vienna, a TASS correspondent reports.
"The phenomenon of the Russian woman is a vivid and multifaceted image. It combines inner strength, resilience, and warmth, as well as care for loved ones. Traditional values naturally coexist here with the pursuit of independence, development, and self-realization—in profession, creativity, and life. Over the centuries, this image has been reflected in Russian culture," the artist noted.
"The exhibition is dedicated to International Women’s Day and to women who have made an invaluable contribution to the development and prosperity of the world. At all times, women have remained a center of spiritual attention, a source of inspiration for artists and writers, leaving a profound mark on the cultural and social history of the world," she added.
"My work is focused on classical portrait painting and is distinguished by attention to personality. I explore timeless relationships between the individual, character, and image. In my work, I combine traditional techniques with a contemporary, subtle approach to psychology and presence," the artist explained.
Among the exhibited works are portraits of outstanding Russian and international women from culture and beyond. The ballerina Maya Plisetskaya is presented alongside opera singer Anna Netrebko, Soviet military pilot Valentina Grizodubova, and American actresses Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn.

"Under Stucco and Chandelier Light"
Art Austria primarily presents works by well-known artists, yet it remains surprisingly diverse.
This year’s Art Austria is taking place in the historic halls of Palais Auersperg. This time, 25 galleries are participating, presenting primarily well-established artists. Although the selection does not offer many new names, the exhibition is remarkably diverse. The palace’s interiors are full of hidden corners, each featuring charming details, thoughtful hanging arrangements, or an engaging dialogue between two sculptures. Visitors are welcomed by Galerie Reinisch, prominently placed on the ground floor, as well as L. art and Susanne Bauer along the staircases.
Kovacek occupies the finest spot on the first floor, where a collaboration with Gmundner Keramik is also on display: one of Eduard Angeli’s paintings will decorate a ceramic plate. Those who have not been to Venice may at least imagine themselves there through the relaxed atmosphere of his paintings (while those who have may find themselves longing again for the emptiness he depicts).
The atmosphere of Art Austria once again inspires hope for the revival of Vienna’s art fair scene after a disappointing spring. Given the fair’s focus on the art market, it is understandable that there is little younger art on view; works by Erwin Wurm, Hermann Nitsch, Christian Ludwig Attersee, and other established masters appear at several booths. Yet venues such as Palais Auersperg — still located right in the city center — provide a wonderful opportunity to host fairs on a smaller, more intimate scale, but within a far more magnificent setting.
And it must be said: Art Austria is truly a spectacle in its entirety — great names gathered in a compact space beneath stucco ceilings and chandelier light.
