Anna Anvidalfarei
Max Ernst Art Prize of the City of Brühl in the Leonora Carrington Hall
Exhibition from April 2 until May 25, 2025
Vienna-based artist Anna Anvidalfarei has been awarded the prestigious Max Ernst Art Prize (initiated by the City of Brühl), earning her an exhibition at the Max Ernst Museum. The artist impressed the jury with her textile-based, surreal-looking object works that combine corporeality with a sense of momentary disorientation. For her life-sized casts of body parts, she utilizes traditional materials such as wood, wax, pigment, and textile. The 28-year-old artist is studying at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna.
The award ceremony and exhibition opening traditionally take place on April 2, Max Ernst's birthday.

New Perspectives in the Leonora Carrington Hall
Exhibition from June 27 until October 5, 2025
The Iranian artist Farah Ossouli (born 1953 in Zanjan, Iran, lives and works in Tehran, Iran) is one of the first artists to draw inspiration from classical Persian miniature painting while creating independent, contemporary works that refer to the political situation in Iran.
Her unique paintings reveal multidisciplinary approaches from the fields of photography, film, literature and theatre: she subtly interweaves classical motifs from Western art history with current political issues in Iran, which serve as a catalyst for feminist themes and oppression by the Iranian regime.
For her solo exhibition at the Max Ernst Museum Brühl of the LVR, she is creating a new series of works with direct references to Max Ernst's time-critical collage novel Une semaine de bonté.
