Between Vision and Present: Paul Goesch & Matthias Noggler in Schwerin
The finissage of the exhibition Paul Goesch & Matthias Noggler invites you to a final reflection on the works on October 11, 2026, at the Art Association for Mecklenburg and Vorpommern in Schwerin. The focus is on the encounter between the artist and architect Paul Goesch, born in Schwerin, and the Austrian painter Matthias Noggler.
A Dialogue Across Generations
The exhibition connects two artistic positions separated by several decades. Paul Goesch, born in 1885 and deceased in 1940, represents a headstrong, visionary visual language that bridges architecture, expressive color design, and modern art. His works provide insight into an extraordinary oeuvre that has only recently gained art historical recognition.
Matthias Noggler, born in 1990, contributes a contemporary painterly perspective to this dialogue. His works engage with Goesch's oeuvre not as mere illustrations but as an independent position within a curatorial juxtaposition of historical avant-garde and contemporary painting.
The Exhibition Atmosphere at the Art Association
At the Art Association for Mecklenburg and Vorpommern, a concentrated art experience unfolds that invites slow reflection on the works. Painting, color fields, lines, and spatial relationships enter into a tension-filled dialogue. The presentation reveals how different epochs and artistic methods can be interconnected through form, imagination, and worldview.
The finissage marks the last public event of the exhibition, which is on view from August 9 to October 11, 2026. For art enthusiasts, this offers the opportunity to experience the curatorial concept in its entirety and visit the exhibition in a special concluding atmosphere.
Paul Goesch: Artist, Architect, and Visionary Outsider
Paul Goesch was born in Schwerin and studied architecture at the Royal Technical University in Berlin. His work straddles the realms of architectural thinking, drawing, and color-intensive art. Engaging with his biography also opens a door to questions of cultural memory, the recognition of marginalized artists, and the reevaluation of art history.
The exhibition places Goesch's unique visual world at the center and relates it to contemporary works by Matthias Noggler. This creates an aesthetic experience that does not obscure historical distance but makes it productive.
Finissage as Cultural Education and Aesthetic Experience
A finissage is more than just the last day of the exhibition: it marks the transition from public presentation to memory. Visitors can once again view the works with special attention, deepen their impressions, and trace the art historical contexts of the exhibition.
The Art Association for Mecklenburg and Vorpommern sees itself as a place of artistic diversity and critical curatorial projects. The exhibition of Paul Goesch and Matthias Noggler exemplifies this orientation in an intergenerational duo exhibition.
Conclusion: Dive into the Exhibition One Last Time
The finissage of Paul Goesch & Matthias Noggler combines art historical discovery, contemporary painting, and a concentrated exhibition atmosphere. Those who want to experience Paul Goesch's visionary art and Matthias Noggler's current painterly position in direct dialogue should not miss this last exhibition day in Schwerin.
