Tour with the artist Rochus Lussi

Description

Rochus Lussi has been a name for decades as an artist, exhibition maker, art mediator, and performer. Galleries, exhibition houses, and churches in Switzerland and abroad show his works. But also during studio stays in Berlin and New York or in the Swiss embassies in Berlin and Havana, he appeared as an artist, and again and again Rochus Lussi wins competitions for art and construction. In all these projects, he succeeds in opening up very different spaces and gaining a new audience for art. Risk and urgency, courage for beauty as well as ugliness, the creation of relationships between the works and the audience are just some of the characteristics that characterize the artist Rochus Lussi. The rooms of the Galerie Stans are just right for Lussi's diverse work. New work groups
The exhibition “zwischen da und dort” shows the latest work groups of the 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 inside the gallery 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 “Talking is Gold,” refer 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. Further event
Finissage: Sunday, November 29, 4 p.m.
