ARTWORKS / LOTS FOR SILENT AUCTION:
Painting with lapis lazuli & gold by Ott Neuens
"Painting with beeswax fascinates him. This technique was invented by the Egyptians and rediscovered by Eugène Delacroix ... It creates, perhaps involuntarily, a bridge between ancient Egypt and our current culture of lyrical abstraction. Alchemy starts to play a dominant role. He holds the medium, juggles it, but he wants to use it in different ways, to invent other possibilities. Through adding of the pigments pressed into the wax he receives a thicker material, superimposed in the colored layers. The tactile, sensitive reliefs obtained by this technique gives a new reading to his painting. “
Born in 1944, lives and works in Luxembourg. His artworks are in many public and private collections world-wide as well as presented at the Embassies of Luxembourg in Vienna (AT) and Dubai (UAE). Numerous exhibitions in Germany, Luxembourg and Grand Region.

Paintings series "Music Art" by Oxana Berezhna
“Consequently, I feel that nature, art and music transform me and elevate me to a higher, more beautiful level of existence. In return, through painting I enjoy creating my own reality, seeing around me the beauty of light and colors, and presenting it on my canvases in such a way, that observer is attracted by its enigma.“ In this collection I focus on different music directions and its transition into feelings and movements.
Being a tango dancer, I have created a collection inspired by Tango music, which I enjoyed during many tango events in Europe and Buenos Aires. Such Argentinian musicians like Astor Piazzolla, Carlos di Sarli, Osvaldo Pugliese and many others are a real source of infinite inspiration.

My next focus is on art inspired from Baroque music. Listening to Bach and some lectures from Jewish musician Michael Kazinik, I had a vision of a “Birth of music” painting. Similarly, when I see venetian masks, or an ancient statue, I combine it with the baroque music, being an example of divine harmony and esthetic.
Collection “Venetian Masks”
Finally, in my paintings I express the impact of music on us, as well as the dance as the result of this impact. No matter if it is tango, ballet, or Indian dance, everything has its own beauty and elegance.

The master opened a museum of GLOW ART in Kyiv in 2010. In 2019 Tetiana studied at the Royal School of Embroidery in London.
Her art pieces shine in the dark and give a physical feeling of the presence thanks to the change of visual picture as well as 3D-effect. The series of portraits of world-wide known personalities are designed and embroidered by the artist in the size of a human face and glow in the dark.

Florence Hoffmann
Graduate of the Ecole Supérieure d'Arts Graphiques Met de Penninghen former Académie Julian in Paris, Florence Hoffmann is currently living in Luxemburg and works world widely.
As manager for Luxembourg in AIESM international monumental sculpture association Florence Hoffmann has curated Luxembourg yearly Gare Art Festival international sculpture symposium for 20 years.
She has participated to international exhibitions such as Open Venice 2000, 2002, 2007 Den Haag Sculptuur 2004 and to several international sculpture symposiums in Europe, America and Asia during the last 25 years. She has permanent installed works in private and public spaces in Europe, Asia, America.
Presented collection Homo Libri otherwise known as What I read builds me.
Her installations question us as humans. Having sculpted various materials, in the last decade she has been using books as main materials for creating her artworks. Her abstract book sculptures put ink and paper in the spotlight.
She raises them to sculpting materials, investigating their physical limits, giving them a new reason for being. Saving them from rubbish and integrating them in another artistic expression, they so transmute from literature to visual arts.
