Art exhibition by Louise Heymans Art exhibition by Louise Heymans
Louise Heymans creates atmospheric and detailed visual worlds for children and adults.
She is particularly interested in printmaking techniques such as woodcut and etching, especially mezzotint. The etching plate is roughened with a finely serrated cradle knife until it is covered with a dense grid of tiny indentations and prints in a deep dark color. The artist uses fine scrapers and polishing steels to bring out the brightness. This creates nuanced, velvety tones. Unusual perspectives and light situations inspire her works, which have already won awards from the Hans Meid Foundation for Book Art and at the International Children's Book Fair in Bologna. She often places forms, structures and surfaces found in nature and architecture in new and surprising contexts. At the Kunstverein Linz, Louise Heymans is showing illustrations from her picture and artist books as well as free graphic works.

International barrel organ festival International barrel organ festival
Linz is cranking and turning again
The International Hurdy-Gurdy Festival is back in the "Colorful City on the Rhine" when the wheels start turning and wooden pipes start trilling.
Around Ascension Day, the "Colorful City on the Rhine" revives old, cherished traditions with the International Barrel Organ Festival. Various barrel organ players from Germany, Austria, Norway and Switzerland will put the historic old town in a nostalgic mood on May 9, 11 and 12, starting at 10 a.m. each day. From Moritaten to Berliner Zille to Kölsche Tön, almost everything can be heard.
A special highlight is the charity concert "Barrel organs in classical concert", because the special acoustics of the beautiful old St. Martin's Church harmonize perfectly with the classical sounds of the historic barrel organs. An event with a very special charm.
The event "Barrel organs in classical concert" takes place on May 10 at 5 pm in St. Martin's Church. Admission is free, but the barrel organ players ask for a donation for a good cause.
Parallel to the barrel organ festival, the presentations of the Linz Volunteer Fire Brigade and the German Red Cross will traditionally take place on the market square on Thursday, May 9. There will be plenty of food and drink on site.

Linz Summer Festival Linz Summer Festival
On Friday, June 14, it's time again - the great event series "Linz Summer Festival" starts the new season.
It starts at 6 pm, because on this evening not only music lovers will get their money's worth, but also sports-loving soccer fans.
The band "Revenant Tanner" will kick things off. The band from the north of Cologne has not yet been able to decide which style their music belongs to. Between folk and bluegrass, sounds from country, soul and pop are always mixed in, creating a special sound experience. The five musicians have a good mood in their luggage that you can't escape.
The show continues with a band that could hardly be more international, "Los Manolos". The musicians come from Spain, Italy, Sri Lanka and Barbados and have dedicated themselves to typical Spanish and Latin American music. By popular demand, the band is once again visiting the Buttermarkt and promises great musical fireworks this time too!
From 9 p.m., it will be "Germany, olé!", as the opening match of the European Football Championship 2024 of the German national team can be watched in a cozy atmosphere at the popular public viewing.
A well-rounded evening also includes good food. And, as always, this will be provided by the Linz gastronomy around the Linz Buttermarkt. In addition to delicious antipasti, pizza, pasta, grilled sausages and Italian wines, the refreshing Kölsch beer and sparkling cocktails are of course a must.
Look forward to a varied program of events from 6 pm, embedded in the historic, cosy Buttermarkt.
