With this group exhibition, Visarte Liechtenstein is focusing on community: the emphasis is on collaborative work, and the focus is less on the finished piece and more on the creative process of working together.
Meditative Spaces Create Room for New Spaces: Objects and images made from handmade paper—a material that already holds within it the past, such as messages, thoughts, and feelings—invite viewers to enter and immerse themselves in new structures of thought, emotional spaces, and networks of language.
YOLY is an artist who translates her personal exploration of the material and spiritual worlds into profound, poetic, artistic works using the materials she finds most suitable for this purpose.
Opening Reception:
August 26, 2026, 7:00 p.m.

It began as a project by Visarte Liechtenstein as part of the 2024 Triennial. The artist collective, comprising Katharina Bierreth-Hartungen, Dagmar Frick-Islitzer, Yoly Maurer, Toni Ochsner, and Angelika Steiger, presented works at the Kunstmuseum Liechtenstein that explored the question of what will still be essential in the year 2050.
The question is more relevant than ever, and so YOLY is organizing the exhibition’s move from Liechtenstein to Vienna’s Schönbrunn Palace.
From September 18 to 27, 2026, the collective’s works will not only be on display at the Schönbrunn Art Salon but will also be thematically highlighted through a special accompanying program.
The exhibition at the Kunstsalon Schönbrunn had already been featured in the media prior to its opening:
• in the July 2026 issue of
«Schweizer Revue»
• in the Liechtenstein daily newspaper «Vaterland»
on August 7, 2026
