What lies behind the curtain? Before a performance begins, all attention is drawn to the still-curtained stage—expectations and possibilities are limitless. British painter Louise Giovanelli (* 1993, London) captures the magic of this fleeting moment in her often large-scale oil paintings. She invites her audience to reflect on perception, knowledge, and the mechanisms of representation in art. On stage, she explores the full range of color, light, and texture with a flair for drama. At the heart of Giovanelli’s seemingly glamorous spectacles are rituals shaped by social and cultural groups. The VILLA STUCK Museum is presenting the artist’s first major solo exhibition in Germany. On display are new works and a selection of recent works. Giovanelli has recently attracted attention with exhibitions in China, Great Britain, Amsterdam and New York.
Reopening VILLA STUCK: October 18, 2025/ Opening 17.10. at 7 pm. Free admission for all: Sunday, October 19 and 26, 2025, 11:00 am – 6:00 pm
