Symposium 2021

Symposium 2021 at Borgo a Mozzano, Italy: Sabine Meyer, Charlotte Mancuso and Giulietta, Harald Thaler, Heiner Hofmann, Kristina Kanaan


We met in Borgo a Mozzano, Italy,  in Heiner Hofmann’s mill from 12th to 19th november 2021; considering the difficult global period we are all living,  we were really happy to see each other in person after such a long time of suspension of all our activities as artists and as an European group. We worked together especially on the organizational level, a lot of  work on the computer was done.  Some of the members joined  online. Our focus at the moment is mainly on the Frequenzen Book, which will be released for the 30th anniversary of the group in the year 2022. 
We are proud that our group has existed for 30 years, some of the founding members are still with us, others have passed away.

30 years of European art together!                                                                                       30 years of artistic communication between artists from all over Europe through at least 3 generations!                                                                                                                         30 years of “We live Europe”!

Our book will talk about all the symposia through pictures, documents and texts: on this occasion we will publish Irene Hallmann Strauss’ narration about the history of the Frequenzen since their foundation.

Libres Bal(l)ades, Ongles, France, 2019

The annual symposium or the Frequenzen art group is over. We would like to thank our perfect managers and artist colleagues  Gilles Brun, Ans Barillé, Jean-Pierre Dupont and of course Agnès: she was always in the right place at the right moment. 

The artists of the art association J’Ongles Art worked with us in public spaces; many visitors came to see us creating. We dedicated this symposium to our artist colleague Michel Schmid, who passed away last year. He was at home in the Haute Provence. 

The final exhibition of the works took place in the Town Hall of Ongles.

Symposium 2018 on Gozo, Malta

The theme “Together”

represents the red thread that binds the artworks in production; each one of the artists will work with his own personal technique.

They will develop sculptures, paintings, photographs and drawings in a public place, where everyone can come and experience live the growth of an artwork.

 

 

 


From 6th to 11th October, it will be possible to visit the artists at “Ta’ Peppi Farmhouse” and see them creating.

From 12th to 14th October they will expose the final results at the Citadella of Gozo.

Frequenzen-Symposium 2015 Fluch—t

Our last Symposium in Neumarkt a.d.Raab in Austria is over. We were a small group this time,  the participating 7 artists came from 6 different European nations. We worked a lot, in a very concentrated manner, and the result is  interesting as usual. We treated the subject “escape”. Our location is situated near the Hungarian and the Slovenian borders and during our symposium many fugitives from Syria have been arrived, trying to go to Vienna. The item was very hot and really felt by the Frequenzen members.

Heiner Hofmann

In my artwork and performances I try to visualize my emotions making them noticeable to the viewer, using my own body to express life’s various experiences. In my paintings, sculptures and performances I try to accent the work in progress keeping in mind becoming, being and going on as my concept.
