Art that hits the mark: The award winners of the Sparda-Bank Art Prize 2025 in Amberg
In the city gallery ALTE FEUERWACHE, a dense exhibition atmosphere unfolds: The current award winners of the Sparda-Bank Art Prize Amberg 2025 – Theresa Eberl, LEITI (Stefan Leitner), and Luis Weiland – present painting, installation, and contemporary visual languages that vibrate between material and imagination. The art experience focuses on precise curation, concise work analysis, and the aesthetic experience in dialogue with space, light, and color.
Painting as Interface: Theresa Eberl's Languages of Form
Eberl's painting connects analog gesture and digital phenomena into hybrid image systems. Flat color chords, modulated edges, and rhythmic overlays create deep spaces that recall glitch-like shifts. In the examination of the works, controlled coincidences emerge, while the compositions fluctuate between figuration, abstraction, and visual syntax. This art direction connects to discussions about post-internet art, perception, and image ecology, making the act of seeing a central theme.
Neon, Line, Rhythm: LEITI (Stefan Leitner) between Street and Installation
LEITI, based in Berlin, condenses influences of urban sign systems into minimalist placements. Acrylic, spray paint, and occasionally neon light formulate clear axes, whose materiality is never concealed. In the spatial effect, a precise tension arises between graphic reduction and narrative suggestion – a play of light, shadow, and surfaces that utilizes the white cube as a resonant body.
Perspectives in Dialogue: Luis Weiland's Contemporary Views
Weiland relies on clear placements and current themes. His works sharpen the perception of transitions: between body and image space, between object and sign. The aesthetic experience is grounded in the balance of form discipline and creative freedom, allowing the exhibition as an ensemble to gain a coherent dramaturgy.
Curating, Context, Cultural Mandate
The city gallery ALTE FEUERWACHE in the city museum Amberg has established itself as a place for contemporary art from Eastern Bavaria. The Sparda-Bank Art Prize – endowed and sustainably supported – strengthens young positions, anchors artistic development in the region, and concurrently opens international reference spaces. Art historical contextualization, mediation, and barrier-free access form the supporting pillars of the presentation.
Spatial Effect and Work Dialogue
Bright stripe light, restrained hanging, and clear sight axes allow the works to breathe. Colors correspond, line fields break, installations enclose volume. Thus, a resonance space arises, in which surfaces, textures, and material sounds sharpen the senses and invite visitors to concentrated work observation.
Conclusion
A concentrated group exhibition is expected, showcasing the diversity of young contemporary art: painterly innovation, graphic rigor, installative energy. Free admission, strong curation, inspiring spatial effect – a convincing reason to experience the exhibition live and expand one’s viewing habits.
