ausstellungmuseumstour

The central theme of his artistic work is the landscape and people of his adopted home of Lower Carinthia, observed with the distance of a stranger and the intensity of a lover. With his work, a unique document has been created for the state of Carinthia. The home of the museum is a centuries-old building on Bleiburg's main square. Annual special exhibitions and a sculpture garden expand the permanent exhibition.The aim of the Werner Berg Museum is to present those artists who were of decisive importance for Werner Berg's development - in particular, these are the artists of German Expressionism, whose descendant Werner Berg was often seen as. Oil paintings and woodcuts by Werner Berg juxtaposed with works by Schmidt-Rottluff show his intense artistic dialogue with the work of the Brücke artist, making the exhibition an unforgettably exciting visual experience.
