LIESL RAFF: Slant brings the Villa Salve Hospes to life
With Slant, the Art Association Braunschweig presents a comprehensive, site-specific exhibition by Liesl Raff that transforms the entire basement of Villa Salve Hospes into an immersive installation. Light-permeable materials, natural rubber, stage platforms, and textiles directly intervene in the neoclassical architecture, creating an intense event experience between precision, silence, and movement.
An art space that reorganizes perception
The installation works with architectural axes, window areas, and wall references. This creates situations where space, light, and material are in constant flux. Visitors do not experience a static exhibition, but rather a finely composed event atmosphere that invites slow walking, observing, and lingering.
The artist and her institutional moment
Liesl Raff (*1979 in Stuttgart, lives and works in Vienna) is presenting her first institutional solo exhibition in Germany here. In her artistic practice, she combines stage design, sculpture, and spatial choreography. This is precisely where the strength of this presentation lies: she does not use the historic Villa Salve Hospes as a backdrop, but as a resonating body for contemporary art.
Art Association Braunschweig as a strong place for contemporary art
The Art Association Braunschweig is one of the renowned and internationally recognized art associations in Germany. Since 1946, it has been located in the Villa Salve Hospes at Lessingplatz. Through exhibitions, guided tours, and educational formats, the association creates a place where art is not only shown but also experienced in dialogue with the audience.
Visiting on-site: What visitors can expect
The exhibition runs from June 27, 2026, to September 27, 2026. The regular admission fee is 5 euros. Public tours and the program surrounding the exhibition provide additional access to the work and the architecture of the house. Those who want to experience contemporary art in a concentrated, atmospheric form will find a strong destination for the next cultural appointment in Braunschweig.
Conclusion: An appointment for all who love art as a spatial experience
Slant is not a classic show for mere viewing, but a precisely constructed exhibition experience that intertwines architecture, material, and perception. Anyone seeking the special audience atmosphere of an outstanding art venue should experience this exhibition live.
