Exhibition: Zinkenbach painters' colony - insights into private collections

The Zinkenbach Painters' Colony Museum in St. Gilgen am Wolfgangsee is a small, fine museum that sheds light on the life and work of the artists who spent their summer retreats at the Adambauer farm in Zinkenbach during the interwar period.
For over 25 years, the museum has presented annual exhibitions with works from its own collection as well as top-class loans from museums and private collections.
This year's exhibition is dedicated to private collectors and their reasons for collecting art.
Discover extraordinary private collections, hidden estates and masterpieces of Austrian interwar art that have never been shown to the public before. The exhibition makes visible and tangible what is important to collectors - their passion, their emotions and their personal connection to art.
You can look forward to numerous unpublished landscape paintings, portraits, still lifes and prints by Josef Dobrowsky, Georg Ehrlich, Ernst Huber, Ludwig Heinrich Jungnickel, Ferdinand Kitt, Oskar Laske, Georg Merkel, Sergius Pauser, Lisel Salzer, Gertrude Schwarz - Helberger, Franz von Zülow and many more.
A comprehensively informative catalog accompanies the exhibition and offers in-depth insights into the works presented and their backgrounds.
