Balthasar Streiff and Rochus Lussi in «Sinnklang»

Description

The series «Sinnklang» in the Stanser parish church combines word and music. This time, Rochus Lussi, word, meets the exceptional musician Balthasar Streiff. Both are connected by the theme of horns. Balthasar Streiff is known from the duo Stimmhorn, from Hornroh Modern Alphorn Quartet, or as an alphorn and büchel soloist. In Stans, he will mainly play pieces from the production «Hornviecher». In it, he portrays cows, goats, and sheep, all of which had to give up their lives. He tells their stories and brings them back to life by playing their horns. Afterwards, Streiff plays in the Galerie Stans to the works of Rochus Lussi. Current works by Rochus Lussi
The exhibition «zwischen da und dort» shows the latest work groups of the Stanser sculptor. Various animal beings populate Rochus Lussi's «Belle Île». These are animals by the wayside that he encounters on his tours. Lussi combines them with shells and supports that provide humans with stability and recovery. «Belle Île» is an endless project on which the artist has been working since 2022. The «Gefässe» are a work group that he has been steadily expanding since 2025. They contain surprising contents and stand or hang indoors or in the garden of Galerie Stans. Technically, Lussi is a master of fine work with the chainsaw. He colors the wood with stain, but he also draws on the daily sheets in A3 format, which form a red thread in the exhibition in Stans. Finally, the latest works, «Wortstäbe» with the title «Reden ist Gold», point to the indispensability of debating and active listening, as practiced by the indigenous peoples of North America with talking sticks. In a handy format, Lussi's «Wortstäbe» also form the affordable «Edition 11» of the Galerie am Dorfplatz 11. www.sinnklang.ch Further events
