SüdpART 6
In the organizer's words:
The Munich Nature Art Biennale opens on July 5, 2025 with international guests and touching LandArt experiences in Sendlinger Forest
For the sixth time, SüdpART is inviting visitors to Munich's Südpark - with a motto that is as simple as it is profound: "What is nature?". For 15 weeks, 21 artists will be showing their temporary works made from natural materials - in the middle of the forest, in the middle of the city.
SüdpART is unique in Germany: a non-commercial art project that works exclusively with what the forest has to offer. The result is 16 stations - places of silence, reflection and connection with nature. Visitors are invited to discover the works individually using site plans or to take part in guided tours with initiator and artist Lore Galitz, which SüdpART has been organizing every two years since 2016.
The intention of the participating artists goes far beyond the aesthetic experience: their installations and sculptures make the forest tangible, encourage people to pause for a moment, focus on threatened nature and pose questions about the relationship between humans and the environment. In the process, one encounters art that fades away - and that is precisely where its power unfolds.
For the first time, four Asian artists are taking part in the Biennale: in "Signs of the Nature", the Thai duo Chakkrit and Pattree Chimnok show how all life is interconnected. Nobuyuki Sugihara and Ayaka Nakamura from Japan have created a woven path that can be read as a silent protest against environmental destruction.
Other artists include Liz Walinski, Manuela Müller, Elke Unkrig, Franziska Agrawal, Doro Seror, Susu Gorth, Irmi Wahl, Barbara Wagner, Günther Heinrich, Lore Galitz, Christine Matti, Elisabeth Seidel, Peter J. M. Schneider, Verena Friedrich, Andreas Bejenke, Vicky Anna Lardschneider and Frauke Feuss. The diversity of positions - poetic, political, meditative - makes SüdpART a multifaceted experience.
All artists will be present at the opening on July 5 at 2 p.m. and will present their work during a joint tour. The environmental journalist and author Claus-Peter Lieckfeld, a profound expert on ecological topics, will open the Biennale with the performative contribution "Interview with a Beech Tree".
Two nature tours with ecologist Eva Schneider (on July 23 and 31, both at 6 p.m.) will open up new perspectives on the complex interplay in the forest habitat.
After the official end on October 18, 2025, the works are left to their own devices - they decay, grow in or are taken back by the forest. A silent cycle that is perhaps the best answer to the question: What is nature?
