MOSTRA: CLEMENS KALETSCH “STORIE SCONOSCIUTE”. PITTURA E DISEGNI - Kufstein

Clemens Kaletsch Between the Visible and the Inner Clemens Kaletsch (*1957) studied at the University of Applied Arts in Vienna under Arnulf Rainer and Oswald Oberhuber. Both teachers shaped his openness to stylistic freedom and inner exploration. His work moves between figuration and symbolism. It is characterized by a quiet, poetic depth—not “wild” painting in the classical sense, but one that listens inwardly. His figures appear detached, dreamlike, archetypal—as if emerging from in-between worlds. Kaletsch belongs to the generation of the 1980s, yet he does not align with the expressive rebellion of the Junge Wilde. Rather, he represents contemplative painting that understands pictorial spaces as spiritual resonance spaces. "I do not paint answers—I paint spaces in which questions can breathe." — Clemens Kaletsch
