Wiedemann Gallery

Wiedemann Gallery – Contemporary Art in Velden am Wörthersee The Wiedemann Gallery presents the extraordinary works of the internationally renowned artist Maximilian Wiedemann. His art operates at the intersection of pop culture, fashion, celebrity, and social observation. Wiedemann describes himself as a “camera lens for celebrities” and documents the habitat of the 21st century with his works – comparable to a 19th-century painter, but with modern forms of expression and spray cans instead of oil paints. Inspired by fashion houses like Prada, magazines like Vogue, and artists like Keith Haring and Jean-Michel Basquiat, Wiedemann creates unmistakable works full of humor, social criticism, and zeitgeist. He received a significant career boost from Karl Lagerfeld, who discovered his work and introduced him to the international art scene. In addition to his well-known paintings, Maximilian Wiedemann also works with neon installations, sculptures made from found objects, photography, and film. His trademark remains his sharp eye for the world of the rich and famous, as well as his subtle humor, which encourages viewers to reflect and smile at the same time. The works of the Wiedemann Gallery document the life of our time and invite you to look at society – and yourself – with a wink.
