This focus of this project lies on ten women who played a vital role in the life of Anton Bruckner. Linz-based artist Zoe Goldstein spent over a year collecting information in order to compile these biographies. The aim is to cast the spotlgiht on these women and gain an idea of who they were and how they lived. Portraits and biographies are examined allowing us to question the role of women in society then and now. The title of the project links the importance of women to his art and refers to his mother, Theresia Bruckner, who was an important female constant in his life. To give a wider audience access to this topic and generate a discourse, this project has been conceived as a travelling exhibition in Linz, Steyr and Attersee. An additional item of the programme, following the opening in the Brucknerhaus on International Women's Day, is a production with a concert and a reading which will take place in the last month of the presentation at the square of the Mariendom (St. Mary's Cathedral).

The exhibition will take place simultaneously at these locations:

This is a place where everything takes infinitely long, it is infinitely quiet, a place where mystery is strong. In this enchanted glade, the ten symphonies of Anton Bruckner resonate 666 times longer. A pause of one sole minute in Bruckner's music becomes a silence of eleven hours and six minutes. The rustling of the leaves, birdsong, the creaking of trees and the horns of distant ships are the real sound of Bruckner, namely the sound for him. An all-pervading mystery from 13 February till 10 November 2024.

Theresia Helm, Anton Bruckner's mother, was born in 1801 in Neuzeug at 28 Theresia-Helm-Straße. She grew up in a wealthy home in Neuzeug.
Her parents owned large parcels of land and her father also received an income in his capacity as administrator of the Gschwendt estate,
as well as the income from the inn. They were also entitled to work as knife makers and publishers.
So on his mother's side, Anton Bruckner is a genuine 'Sierninger - Neuzeuger'.
Anton Bruckner later returned to the inn, which is now the Landhotel Forsthof, again and again and once dedicated the song Die Rose to the daughter of the hotel, whom he greatly admired.
He was also a founding member of the Liedertafel Sierninghofen-Neuzeug singing group, which is still based at Restaurant Landerl and holds weekly choir rehearsals, provided those attending are able to sing.
Anton Bruckner was also the author of the singers' motto.

The opening of the exhibition with the Hausruckviertler Kunstkreis (Hausruck Art Group) will take place on 10.05.24 at 18:00 at the municipal office. You can visit the exhibition during the opening hours of the municipality or by prior registration by phoning 07252 2255-0 or registering by mail: Registration

2 guided tours are available:

- Sierning: on the trail of Anton Bruckner, his love and his contemporaries in Sierning
The tour includes the Landhotel Forsthof, the castle and the church. The Forsthof, where he was in love with the daughter, is almost certainly where he also met Josef Werndl and Anton Landerl, one of Sierning's greatest patrons (financing the hospital and the high altar in the parish church).
He enthusiastically played Marian hymns on the organ in the church for his great love. Bruckner was often invited to the castle by the owner, Baroness Sophie von Karst.

- Sierninghofen/Neuzeug: tracing the footsteps of Theresia Bruckner (née Helm) and Bruckner's friends in Neuzeug
Here the focus is, on the one hand, on Theresia Helm, Anton Bruckner's mother, who was born in Neuzeug.
On the other hand, Anton Bruckner had good friends in Neuzeug, such as Carl Almeroth (cutler in Steyr and Neuzeug) and also had good contacts with the local Liedertafel singing group. He came up with their foundation motto and also took part in the rehearsals.

The tours can be booked individually and last for about 2 hours.
The price is € 10.00 per person for up to 10 participants and € 7.00 per person for 11 persons and more, or group prices by arrangement. In Sierning a visit to the exhibition is included in the price of the guided tour.

2024 is the memorial year for Anton Bruckner, the Fotografische Gesellschaft is taking part in this commemorative year and offering a variety of approaches to Bruckner: as a musician, as a person and as a driven man.

The aim of the exhibition is to shed light on Bruckner's life and work from different perspectives and to present its complexity. Bruckner as a musician: The focus here is on Bruckner's musical legacy. His symphonies, organ works and other compositions take center stage and demonstrate his musical creativity.

Bruckner the man: This perspective is dedicated to Bruckner's personality and his life outside of music. Here the photographic works tell of his life as a person, as a musician in the provinces and his environment. Bruckner the driven man: This aspect sheds light on the inner struggles and challenges that Bruckner had to face. These include his self-doubt, criticism during his lifetime and his tireless pursuit of perfection in his music.

The diversity in the works of the Fotografische Gesellschaft attempts to honor and show Bruckner in all his complexity. Through different artistic approaches and interpretations, the public is offered the opportunity to get to know Bruckner from new perspectives.

Anton Bruckner felt at home in St. Florian Abbey where he was a choirboy. He was taught here and later taught himself. He also played the organ on the "Krismannin" in the collegiate church. In this place of the world, he searched for his own identity as an artist. He also returned here for good on his very last journey. At the abbey, for the very first time, the Upper Austrian KulturEXPO Anton Bruckner 2024 exhibition showcases the various stages of the composer's life and work. It features a large number of documents from the abbey's archives. Three monumental pavilions in the abbey courtyard invite visitors to experience Bruckner's dreams and visions for themeselves through exciting multimedia presentations.

The immersive sound space "Being Anton" at the Ars Electronica Center in Linz offers visitors the opportunity to explore Bruckner's world of sound in a completely new way. After all, when we think of Anton Bruckner, we usually think of his legacy, i.e. Bruckner's music and his sounds. But what soundscape surrounded Bruckner himself? What did he listen to in his everyday life? His life was characterized by many social upheavals triggered by the industrial revolution. The steam engine, for example, which was used in steam trains and steamships, not only changed people's mobility options at an unprecedented pace, but also brought a completely new soundscape into the world.
The installation "Being Anton", developed by the Ars Electronica Futurelab, allows visitors to immerse themselves in this world of sound that surrounded Anton Bruckner and his contemporaries. The link with examples from Bruckner's musical oeuvre creates points of contact between the two sound worlds.

Josef Steger, who was Bruckner's friend and hairdresser in Steyr, collected Bruckner's hair, which ended up in glass medallions that can be found in the Nordico Linz and in the Town Museum of Steyr, among other places. In the animated film made by the artist, Ingrid Gaier, the hairs escape from their place in the museum. They dance to the music of the Italian sound artist, Isabella Forciniti, and play tricks on Anton Bruckner's bald head. The film raises questions about collective memory and which mementos go towards shaping it.

On 24 July 2024, the Italian sound artist, Isabella Forciniti, will play a concert.

The special exhibition deals, among other things, with the historical documents that record Anton Bruckner's relationship with Perg.

A fragmentary account is given of the ways in which the musician, Anton Bruckner, was honoured in Perg in the decades following his death through the naming of a street, the hanging of a memorial plaque, in specialist lectures or as part of church tours. An annual programme, which accompanies the exhibition, is directed at the inhabitants of the town and district of Perg inviting them to visit the exhibition.

Perg is Bruckner's town because
- Anton Bruckner's great-grandmother was the daughter of a millstone cutter from Perg
- Bruckner had personal friends or was acquainted with several people from Perg (in particular the Mayor, Karl Terpinitz, and the schoolmaster, Kirchhofer) and Anton Bruckner was thus commissioned to build a new organ in the parish church of Perg,
- Anton Bruckner dedicated the Perg Prelude to the leather goods' merchant, Josef Diernhofer,
- Anton Bruckner set the Liedertafel motto to music written by the Pergkirchen priest, Andreas Mittermayr.

The KUVA Art Symposium is a format in which the two curators, Michaela Reisenberger and Bibiana Weber, invited visual artists to set up their studios for several days in April 2024 on the premises of Turm 9 - Stadtmuseum. Work was carried out in public on site during the so-called work days on the given theme "Anton between the worlds" around Anton Bruckner. The works created during the symposium will be presented in the special exhibition "Anton zwischen den Welten".

The artists diversify the canon of visual and auditory works and take a contemporary look at Anton Bruckner. The artistic works are a source of inspiration for sonic interpretations. Selected sound artists were commissioned by the exhibition organizers to develop compositions for the works in the show that musically reference the art. The commissioned works of sound mediation will be accessible in the exhibition in the form of sound stations from 21.09.2024.

The two curators are opening up Tower 9 with this project- the Town Museum of the Maximilian Tower Fortification - in a special way.

In this the 30th year of theaterSPECTACEL Wilhering, which also coincides with the first Upper Austrian KulturEXPO Anton Bruckner 2024, once again the programme boasts a world premiere. The commissioned work was initiated by the artistic director of the Bruckner Year, Norbert Trawöger, and the  composer, Rudolf Jungwirth. Karin Peschka, author and winner of the Upper Austrian Provincial Culture Prize for Literature, is writing the play, while the director of  theaterSPECTACEL, Joachim Rathke, will be directing the production.

About the play
Anton Bruckner, a composer known for his scurrility, spent several summer retreats at Wilhering Abbey where he encountered a monkey that was "imprisoned" in the Palm House. The monkey's name has not been passed on but the animal itsefl does actually make an appearance in one of Bruckner's symphonies. I wonder what the two had to say to each other...?

The auuthor, Karin Peschka, the composer, Rudolf Jungwirth, and the director, Joachim Rathke, have taken this curious episode as an opportunity to delve into the rich inner world of this borderline ingenious composer who was bursting with contradictions. Just like in the journey through time "MONKS" (2022), the audience will be part of a journey that will take them from the barn to the Palm House and into the church. "If you think you would enjoy an unusual, cheekily narrated journey through the wonderfully crazy dreams of Bruckner, you've come to the right place," the director, Joachim Rathke, comments.

With: Julia Frisch, Thomas Kasten, Henry Mason, Daniel Morales Perez, Simone Neumayr, Felix Rank, Matthäus Schmidlechner, Dörnbacher Chorgemeinschaft and many others.

Period of event:
09.07. - 02.08.2024, at 8:00 p.m. respectively

This focus of this project lies on ten women who played a vital role in the life of Anton Bruckner. Linz-based artist Zoe Goldstein spent over a year collecting information in order to compile these biographies. The aim is to cast the spotlgiht on these women and gain an idea of who they were and how they lived. Portraits and biographies are examined allowing us to question the role of women in society then and now. The title of the project links the importance of women to his art and refers to his mother, Theresia Bruckner, who was an important female constant in his life. To give a wider audience access to this topic and generate a discourse, this project has been conceived as a travelling exhibition in Linz, Steyr and Attersee. An additional item of the programme, following the opening in the Brucknerhaus on International Women's Day, is a production with a concert and a reading which will take place in the last month of the presentation at the square of the Mariendom (St. Mary's Cathedral).

The exhibition will take place simultaneously at these locations:

Meadow in front of the municipal office
Nußdorferstrasse 15
4864 Attersee am Attersee

Theresia Helm, Anton Bruckner's mother, was born in 1801 in Neuzeug at 28 Theresia-Helm-Straße. She grew up in a wealthy home in Neuzeug.
Her parents owned large parcels of land and her father also received an income in his capacity as administrator of the Gschwendt estate,
as well as the income from the inn. They were also entitled to work as knife makers and publishers.
So on his mother's side, Anton Bruckner is a genuine 'Sierninger - Neuzeuger'.
Anton Bruckner later returned to the inn, which is now the Landhotel Forsthof, again and again and once dedicated the song Die Rose to the daughter of the hotel, whom he greatly admired.
He was also a founding member of the Liedertafel Sierninghofen-Neuzeug singing group, which is still based at Restaurant Landerl and holds weekly choir rehearsals, provided those attending are able to sing.
Anton Bruckner was also the author of the singers' motto.

The opening of the exhibition with the Hausruckviertler Kunstkreis (Hausruck Art Group) will take place on 10.05.24 at 18:00 at the municipal office. You can visit the exhibition during the opening hours of the municipality or by prior registration by phoning 07252 2255-0 or registering by mail: Registration

2 guided tours are available:

- Sierning: on the trail of Anton Bruckner, his love and his contemporaries in Sierning
The tour includes the Landhotel Forsthof, the castle and the church. The Forsthof, where he was in love with the daughter, is almost certainly where he also met Josef Werndl and Anton Landerl, one of Sierning's greatest patrons (financing the hospital and the high altar in the parish church).
He enthusiastically played Marian hymns on the organ in the church for his great love. Bruckner was often invited to the castle by the owner, Baroness Sophie von Karst.

- Sierninghofen/Neuzeug: tracing the footsteps of Theresia Bruckner (née Helm) and Bruckner's friends in Neuzeug
Here the focus is, on the one hand, on Theresia Helm, Anton Bruckner's mother, who was born in Neuzeug.
On the other hand, Anton Bruckner had good friends in Neuzeug, such as Carl Almeroth (cutler in Steyr and Neuzeug) and also had good contacts with the local Liedertafel singing group. He came up with their foundation motto and also took part in the rehearsals.

The tours can be booked individually and last for about 2 hours.
The price is € 10.00 per person for up to 10 participants and € 7.00 per person for 11 persons and more, or group prices by arrangement. In Sierning a visit to the exhibition is included in the price of the guided tour.
