Visit to François Burland’s exhibition of recent woodcuts on paper bags and other used materials. Touching, his razor-sharp perception with a humorous wink.
As a self taught artist, his work originally was situated near to Art Brut. Since over a decade he started working with young migrants - collaborative works reflecting on different perspectives on our country, migration, politics, etc. resulted.
Burland lives and works between Senegal and Switzerland.

2026 annual excursion of the artistic commission of Kantonsspital Graubünden took us to St. Gallen to visit our colleagues of H-OCH Health Ostschweiz (hospital group around former Kantonsspital St. Gallen). Our guided tour with chairman of the board of directors Stefan Kuhn, head of department real estate & operations Thomas Sojak and art commissioner Dorothee Haarer gave us a most fascinating insight into the art projects of the newest building: from the parking garage through different floors and a mathematical Color-lift-installation to the heliport. Dorothee Haarer embedded the art works into the art historical context.
In the afternoon insight into Hans Thomanns studio - artist, of whom KSGR has a couple of important works.

«vulnérable», Austrian artist Wilhelm Scheruebl visiting his works in the exhibition.
With his series of «Minusaquarelle» Scheruebl lets nature work at some degrees minus zero. Color freezing into the paper and leaving most impressive crystals. After many years of experimenting fascinating works result, the more exciting, the more the artist takes his ego back. It’s difficult to decipher the works - some read Chinese landscapes, others photographic reminiscences of frozen memories.
Vulnérable talks about vulnerability of climate and nature. But also about our egos in nowadays politics and society.
Minusaquarelle by Wilhelm Scheruebl reconnect us with our natural surroundings. … and our childhood: do you remember breathing on car windows in winter and watching how human breath transforms into most wonderful crystals all over the window.
Scheruebls works juxtaposed to Étienne Krähenbühl’s burnt cork oak installation: Fire & Ice. And Mohsen Baghernejad Moghanjooghi‘s To***co plant installations.

«Vulnérable» exhibition from 26.04.26-25.10.2026
focussing on different perspectives of vulnerability.
Greek artist Costas Xanthis’ Silicone works are inspired by Renaissance artist Hieronymus Bosch and Konrad Kyesers Bellifortis manuscript, merged with the aesthetics of computer games. Toys for war or s*x & joy. What is the difference? Clouds, originally used in an ecclestical context serve here as an ironical pedestal for hostility and combat. Installed in a vertical space, enhances this vision.

Interactive video installation by artist MARCK within an iron lung, medical-historical device, built in the 1920’s and in use until some years ago (for one last Polio-patient).

Leonora Carrington’s «Hombre Roto» is an important position in the exhibition «vulnérable», reflecting on the position of man in society. Juxtaposed to works of young Berlin artist Geli Derzapf, who reflects about Catholicism, feminism and s*xuality, the bronze mask is an invitation to transformation. Asking us to reconsider the boundaries of the self, to embrace ambiguity, and to recognize the infinite possibilities of becoming.
We are very happy, thanks to Rossogranada, to have this great piece in our exhibition.
Come to our opening on Sunday, April 26, 14-17h to discover further perspectives about «vulnérable».

Artist in residence Tim Mälzer @ University St. Gallen, HSG. For once a totally different comeback to my Alma Mater. Full of taste, pleasure, joy … invited by the vegan alumni club. Experimenting between ingredients and group dynamics under difficult conditions. It was just fun. Cook what you love with the right story around.
A great inspiration to invite in addition to visual artists, in future also culinary artists.
