Folk is enjoying a comeback. A kind of folklore that comes in many shapes and forms. A new love for nature: its majesty, its beauty and its savagery. The world is in a state of reorientation. Glaciers are melting, nuclear power stations are exploding, financial crises are rocking the economy. The inevitable reaction is a return to tangible values, a yearning for rural idyll and oneness with nature. A trend for DIY. The search for authenticity. Music now has the New Folk movement. These are mainly English-speaking musicians playing unusual or often highly traditional instruments, whose voices sound raw, fragile, rough-edged; the music plays with the notion of dilettantism, intentionally mixing the unconventional with the familiar. Storytelling forms part of the tradition of country and blues of past decades. The melodies are catchy and have a fragile beauty to them. They convey an atmosphere, a new love for nature. New Folk lives in the city, has rural nuances, but is not necessarily moral. The lyrics, covers, tour posters, magazine cuttings and songs serve as samples and intentions. Impressions which are captured in multicoloured, associative imagery. Wild animals, telescopic views, floral abundances, images opened up by the music. Paintings, drawings, collages shaped by the pictorial language of this music scene complement each other, creating a cohesive panorama, like a patch of woodland made up of individual trees. A forest glade.

Austria
Perceptions, aspirations and visions of a generation. - Captured in folkloric variety with the tenderness of a bemused romantic. The attempt to draw a gentle line from Caspar - David Friedrich und Thoreau, up to the transfigured Instagram pictures of the present. Revised pictures of postcard idylls and portraits which facing the distance, celebrate a bold escapism towards nature. Flora and fauna under attention. Associative reflections of music and online imagery, loosely linked with the own biography captured in paintings - filled with clarity, mysticism and vulnerability.
