Gallery for Digital Painting

Municipal Gallery for Digital Painting

The municipal gallery for digital painting in Konz is a cultural institution dedicated to the presentation and promotion of digital painting. This innovative art form, which is often little known, uses modern digital tools and graphics tablets to create works of art instead of traditional materials such as canvas and brushes.

In June 2024, the gallery opened its doors in the rooms of the Konz City Library, Konstantinstraße 50, with the first exhibition of the local digital painter Peter Becker under the title "On the Moselle and Saar". Around 65 of his works were shown on a monitor specially developed for art. In addition, several prints offered an insight into the diverse printing options available for works of art that are available as digital files.

From mid-January 2025, the next exhibition will present works by the Trier artist Walter Baumeister.
