This year, we also participated in the Art Night in Kempten. With the official title "Encounters," all eyes in the city were on the art, admiring the many meeting places between artists and the audience. The crowd was large, and Kempten was shone with an exciting and stimulating art program in magenta red. At Station 42, the Stadtstadel featured the new exhibition "The Successful Cast" by Gerold Jäggle, an artist and sculptor from Stuttgart. With great interest, numerous visitors were introduced to the art of bronze casting between 7 PM and midnight, listening attentively to the explanations, stories, and anecdotes of the artist. Whether it was the sessions with Martin Walser, whom he portrayed in bronze, or his exciting object idea on the theme "Peanuts" for Deutsche Bank in 1996, which made him and Deutsche Bank CEO Hilmar Kopper very well-known, it was a popular station on the "Art Path" of the Kempten Art Night.
Gerold Jäggle was thrilled with the Art Night itself and the many people who were interested in his works. He had not expected that.
