ANTON BRUCKNER
FROM MARBLE TO MYTH

04.05. - 27.10.24
Anton Bruckner Museum Ansfelden

The Anton Bruckner Museum in Ansfelden is in the house where the famous composer and musician was born. It is a symbolic place dedicated to Bruckner's life and work. The museum preserves the memory of Bruckner's musical legacy and his deep roots in Upper Austrian culture. Visitors can admire Bruckner's personal objects, musical instruments and manuscripts, which offer an insight into his creative work and everyday life. The historic building reflects the rural surroundings and the time in which Bruckner lived. It is a place of inspiration and education that attracts music lovers as well as historians and those interested in culture.

To commemorate the 200th birthday of Anton Bruckner in 2024, the state of Upper Austria is organising the Upper Austrian KulturEXPO. In addition to the modified permanent exhibition, which includes original items of the musician's clothing, a special exhibition entitled "Anton Bruckner - From Marble to Myth" will be held in Bruckner's birthplace.

The fact that you can get art from a vending machine just like chewing gum, snacks or drinks is no longer something entirely new. However, the inventor of the art vending machine, Helene Huemer, fills it with sculptures, medals, scrolls and drawings as well as comics in the style of Bruckner. The machine is now going on tour through Upper Austria and demands to be filled again and again by creative people. There is a hands-on table for both the young and old where YOU can give your creativity free rein. Get in on the art: model, stamp, draw, write poetry and let us teleport Anton Bruckner, the organ rock star, into the here and now. Insert a 2 euro coin, spin it and plop! You will be rewarded with a surprise such as an original work of art from regional & international artists or from one of the participants.

The workshop is accessible for those with impaired mobility.

This event takes place as part of Mostkost.

Symphonic music affects us without words as does dance. In the former, art is expressed as a sound and in the latter, art is predominantly visible. Approaching Anton Bruckner's 9th Symphony, for Compositional transfer inbodied "I ANTON " we worked on a method of translation which should help musical structures to shift from a space filled with sound to a space filled with movement. This performance does not just dance to the music or its mood, rather it repeats its forms even in the physical realm, and even attempts to dance with Anton beyond the unfinished end through the movements which develop from this.

The striking similarity between a recurring theme from Bruckner's Fifth Symphony and a guitar riff by the White Stripes - in their song, the Seven Nation Army - is the godmother of this ten-piece electric guitar ensemble. In this field of tension between high culture, popular culture and avant-garde, the collective dedicates itself to this very riff. In essence, this is less a case of "stealing the stolen" or an act of appropriation. It can be understood in the sense of a recuperation. Experimental sound surfaces meet pointed repetitions of the Bruckner riff in variations and subtle shifts. The result is a a monstrous sound aesthetic, a hybrid of Anton Bruckner, White Stripes and the loud electric guitar symphonist, Glenn Branca.

In good weather, the event will take place on the lawn in front of the vicarage and in the ABC hall in the event of bad weather

Concert for Bruckner's 200th birthday in Ansfelden. Since 2018, the International Bruckner Festival Linz has begun every year on September 4, the birthday of its namesake. The birthday concert to kick off the festival always takes place in Ansfelden, the place where it all began for Anton Bruckner, where he was born in the servants' quarters of the school building and baptized on the same day in the nearby parish church.

In 2024, the well-wishers could hardly be more prominent: The Cleveland Orchestra, known as the "most European" of the US orchestras, and its chief conductor Franz Welser-Möst from Linz will do the honors and pay tribute to the jubilarian with an open-air performance in the open space between the parish church and courtyard.

The installation combines organ playing and an ensemble of converted playground equipment to create a collective musical instrument in public space. By rocking and seesawing together, different organ pipes are operated - a sound space unfolds on the organ playground that makes Anton Bruckner audible and tangible in both an abstract and playful way.
The organ will be set up in 2024 in various locations with a Bruckner connection.

The Schorgel comes to Ansfelden for its birthday concert!

"Happy birthday, Anton!" - Concert for Bruckner's 200th birthday in Ansfelden

Since 2018, the International Bruckner Festival Linz has begun annually on September 4, the birthday of its namesake. The birthday concert to kick off the festival always takes place in Ansfelden, the place where it all began for Anton Bruckner, where he was born in the servants' quarters of the school building and baptized on the same day in the nearby parish church.

In 2024, the well-wishers for the milestone birthday could hardly be more prominent: The Cleveland Orchestra, known as the most "European" of the US American orchestras, and its chief conductor Franz Welser-Möst, who hails from Linz, will do the honors and pay tribute to the jubilarian with an open-air performance in the open space between the parish church and courtyard.

After the prelude and "Isolde's Liebestod" from Richard Wagner's opera Tristan und Isolde, the night piece par excellence, Bruckner's Symphony No. 4 in E flat major, his first in a major key, is one of the composer's most comprehensible and therefore most popular works, to which the title Romantic , which he himself gave, and the associations associated with it have contributed significantly. This applies in particular to the "1878/80 version", whose depictions of nature clothed in tones in the newly composed third movement, which became famous under the nickname "Jagd-Scherzo" , is one of numerous highlights. Its premiere on 20 February 1881 by the Vienna Philharmonic under Hans Richter was a great success and represented an important 'stage victory' for Bruckner on his way to becoming a recognized symphonist.

The aim of the exhibition is to create access to Anton Bruckner as a person, with his wishes, desires, but also his shortcomings, as well as his amusing and endearing character traits, which have been passed down through many anecdotes. This makes him more familiar and more accessible to the public and, as a result, his work as well. The exhibition "BRUCKNER KONTRAPUNKT" sheds light on Anton Bruckner's personality, a man full of deep emotions and fulfilling inspirations, with a special focus on the importance of women in Bruckner's life. The most important places of his creative work are also of significance for the project.

Her works, on the one hand an examination of the world around us, and on the other the exploration of the spectrum of pictorial design through the textile medium, enable a journey through a world of images that constantly opens up anew depending on the angle of view and spatial proximity.
