Fresh Positions from Eastern Bavaria: The Award Winners of the Sparda-Bank Art Prize Amberg Conquer the City Gallery
The City Gallery Alte Feuerwache in the City Museum Amberg presents the winners of the Sparda-Bank Art Prize Amberg 2025. In a concentrated art experience, painting, graphic art, installation, and sculpture come together – curated for an aesthetic experience that makes space, light, and material sensually tangible. The exhibition runs in the program year 2026 of the City Gallery and simultaneously opens doors for artwork observation, dialogue, and cultural education.
Artistic Handwriting in Dialogue
Theresa Eberl, LEITI (Stefan Leitner), and Luis Weiland showcase contemporary positions that bring different art directions into conversation. Painterly abstraction meets installation settings and sculptural form-finding; color-intensive image surfaces, transparent materials, and tactile surfaces unfold precise spatial effects in the exhibition atmosphere. The curation of the City Gallery arranges the works so that sight axes, scale, and rhythm of the hanging allow for intense artwork observation.
Context: Support for Young Talent with Signal Effect
The Sparda-Bank Art Prize Amberg honors young artists from Eastern Bavaria and is endowed with a total of 6,000 euros. The City of Amberg awards the prize in collaboration with Sparda-Bank Ostbayern eG; the subsequent group exhibition in the City Gallery is an integral part of the program. The format strengthens regional contemporary art and anchors it art historically between painting, sculpture, graphic art, photography, new media, and installation.
