Color space, form and movement in the Technology and Start-up Center Straubing
The exhibition Colour-Space-Poles II brings together works by Werner Claßen and Anton Kerscher in a lively dialogue of painting, sculpture, and art movies. The venue at Europaring 4 in Straubing combines contemporary art with the atmosphere of an innovative site, where curation, spatial impact, and aesthetic experience become immediately palpable. The exhibition runs from May 7 to August 7, 2026; the listing states August 7, 2026, as the date at the Europaring 4 location.

Between color, body, and material
Werner Claßen represents abstract painting and floor installation; his artistic work evolves from reduced forms, spatial arrangements, and a precise sensitivity to color and surface. Anton Kerscher primarily works with metal sculpture, complemented by wood, fabric, plaster, and plastic. His works focus on physical presence, technical processing, and a powerful material aesthetic. Together, both positions offer a perspective on contemporary art where painting, sculpture, and installation do not appear separately but as an open field of tension.

Artistic profiles with regional ties
Claßen, born in 1950 in Bad Kötzting, studied pedagogy and art education in Regensburg, has been working freelance since 2008, and was awarded, among other honors, the culture prize of the Dingolfing-Landau district. Kerscher, born in 1954 in Bubach near Mamming, developed his sculptures autodidactically and has shown works in contexts such as the Venice Biennale as well as in numerous exhibitions in East Bavaria. Both biographies point to an art practice that derives its energy from region, material, and experimentation. ([isargilde.de](https://isargilde.de/mitglieder/classen-werner/))
Exhibition venue with clear structure and easily accessible location
The Technology and Start-up Center at the Port of Straubing-Sand offers an unusual stage for art in the start-up center. The location is conveniently connected via A3 and A92 as well as B20 and is described on the port's website as a space for innovation, sustainability, and events. This creates an art experience for visitors between industrial distinctness and concentrated artwork observation. ([hafen-straubing.de](https://www.hafen-straubing.de/?utm_source=openai))
Accompanying information and cultural context
The series Art in the Start-up Center sees itself as a recurring exhibition platform. This makes the visit also artistically educational: it demonstrates how contemporary art can be conveyed outside classic museum halls. Particularly the combination of painting, sculpture, and art movies creates an exhibition atmosphere in which perception, material, and light interact.

Conclusion: Colour-Space-Poles II promises a dense, multifaceted view of contemporary art between color, space, and plastic presence. Those seeking aesthetic experience, regional art positions, and an unusual exhibition venue should experience this show live in Straubing.
