Young Art with Attitude: The Winners of the Sparda-Bank Art Award 2025 in Amberg

The Stadtgalerie Alte Feuerwache at the Stadtmuseum Amberg presents the current winners' exhibition of the Sparda-Bank Art Award Amberg 2025. The exhibition brings together notable positions from Eastern Bavaria and offers an intense art experience between painting, graphics, and installation – curatorially clear, spatially breathing, with free admission.

Work Analysis: Color, Form, Present

In the exhibition atmosphere of the former fire station, the works reveal their spatial impact: large canvases, precise light leading, dialogical hanging. The audience experiences aesthetic experiences in the interplay of material, surface, and motif – from pasty color bodies to fine line structures.

Theresa Eberl: Digital and Analog Imagery

The painter trained in Nuremberg develops a visual language that intertwines everyday observations with digital phenomena. Transparent glazes, overlays, and hard edges meet fragmented signs. This creates painterly fields where perception and stored images collide – clever, sensual, and timely diagnostic.

LEITI (Stefan Leitner): Reduction and Rhythm

Leitner's works operate with reduced forms, clear contours, and a vibrant palette. Acrylic and spray layers generate a graphic energy that oscillates between symbol and form. The tension of light and shadow sharpens visual guidance and invites precise work observation.

Luis Weiland: Material Thinking of the Present

Weiland connects painterly placements with mixed media elements. Structures, overlays, and cut-outs open tactile interpretations: images as surface events that make traces, scratches, and gestures visible. In doing so, the exhibition addresses questions of image creation, authenticity, and memory.

Curatorship and Context

The Stadtgalerie positions contemporary art from Eastern Bavaria with museum-like care: clear perspectives, thematic densities, precise labels. The art prize – endowed with the support of Sparda-Bank Ostbayern – strengthens artistic development and visibility of the region.

Educational Offers and Visitor Experience

Accompanying are work talks, short focus tours, and independent work observation. The open architecture supports Slow Looking: colors breathe, shapes step forward, details become readable. An ideal place for art education, school visits, and inspired break conversations.

Conclusion

Strong, independent voices of young art are expected: painterly experiments, clever reduction, material-conscious setups. Those wanting to experience contemporary art closely and intensely will find a convincing panorama here – free admission, high quality, great impact.
