Contemporary Art

Every week since 2022, we have featured nude model poses, both in short and long poses. At the beginning, we have short poses (2, 3, 5, 15 minutes), then two 30-minute sessions. Between blocks, we have 5-10-minute breaks to refresh and socialize with tea and cookies. Normally, we have an interesting international group of artists, consisting of around 8-10 people, who come regularly and do not typically write about their attendance on Meetup. **Important!** Please book your ticket at Meetup by PayPal or [here](https://eventfrog.ch/en/p/art-exhibitions/other-art-events/life-drawing-aktzeichnen-in-zuerich-kreiss-4-7464978669133381474.html) On our Instagram page, you can see drawings from our artists from previous events: [here](https://eventfrog.ch/en/cockpitv3/events/7365649101847824543/overview) Please bring your favorite drawing material.

Vier Bilder. Vier Himmelsrichtungen. In ihrer Mitte: eine Eule, die antwortet. ​Mit Zwischen den Welten eröffnet Karin Schiffmann einen Raum zwischen Orientierung und Ungewissheit, zwischen Malerei, Objekt und lebendigem Dialog. ​Die grossformatigen Himmelsrichtungs-Bilder spannen ein Feld auf, das weniger Landschaft zeigt als Kräfte sichtbar macht: Aufbruch und Rückkehr, Anziehung und Loslassen, das Bekannte und das Unbekannte. ​Im Zentrum steht die Orakeleule, eine Installation, die altes Wissen und neue Technologie miteinander verbindet. Über Jahrzehnte hat Karin Schiffmann Texte, Bilder, Überlieferungen und persönliche Aufzeichnungen gesammelt. Aus diesem handverlesenen Archiv entsteht ein KI-gestütztes Orakel: Wer die Eule befragt, erhält keine beliebigen Antworten, sondern Resonanzen aus einem persönlichen Wissensraum, gefiltert durch Maschine, Erinnerung und künstlerisches Denken. ​Kleine Eulenobjekte und Fabeltierbilder treten als Zwischentöne in den Raum: nah, eigenwillig, präzise und still. Gemeinsam verdichten sie die Ausstellung zu einem Gefüge aus Zeichen, Fragen und Gegenwart. ​Was geschieht, wenn Kunst zu sprechen beginnt? ​Ein Raum zum Erleben, Sehen und Fragen. ​Gustavo Salami gibt an der Vernissage einen kurzen, verständlichen Einblick in die Frage, wie künstliche Intelligenz Kunst verändert: Was bleibt menschlich, was wird neu möglich, und warum betrifft uns das alle? ​**Ort** Kuble – House of Intelligence Räffelstrasse 26 8045 Zürich [kuble.com](https://kuble.com/?utm_source=luma) ​**Vernissage** 16\. Juni 2026 ab 17:00 ​[karinschiffmann.com](https://karinschiffmann.com/?utm_source=luma) ​Karin Schiffmann, geboren 1952 in Bern, lebt und arbeitet in Zürich. Ihre künstlerische Praxis bewegt sich zwischen Malerei, Ritual, Objekt und Forschung. Sie studierte unter anderem bei Prof. Leiko Ikemura und zeigte ihre Arbeiten international, unter anderem in Mumbai, Zürich, Schaffhausen und im Metaverse.

Unter professioneller Anleitung und individueller Betreuung wird in kleinen Gruppen (ausser während der Schulferien) gearbeitet. Ein Einstieg sowie ein Probeunterricht sind jederzeit möglich. Im Kurs helfe ich dir, deine kreativen Ideen zu verwirklichen und deine künstlerisch-gestalterischen Fähigkeiten weiterzuentwickeln. Ob nach Fantasie, nach einer Bildvorlage oder direkt aus der Realität: Du setzt deine eigenen Motive um und lernst dabei den souveränen Umgang mit verschiedenen Mal- und Zeichentechniken. Egal auf welchem Level du startest – hier bist du richtig: **Anfänger** werden sorgfältig in die Grundlagen eingeführt. **Fortgeschrittene** können ihre Kenntnisse und Erfahrungen vertiefen und erweitern. **Experten** erlernen die Geheimnisse alter Meister und perfektionieren das realistische Zeichnen und Malen. **Auskunft und Anmeldung:** marianas@gmx.ch \* 078 628 78 24 \* [www.marianas.ch](http://www.marianas.ch) **Freitags** und **samstags in Illnau:** von 9:30 bis 12:30 Uhr und von 13:00 bis 12:30 Uhr | **Kurskosten** (inkl.

Based on the novel Roadside Picnic, it is NO picnic, but rather one of the masterpieces of world cinema. Andrei Tarkovsky's 1979 Soviet sci-fi classic, recounts the expedition of a writer and professor led by a mysterious guide called "The Stalker." to a futuristic wasteland called "The Zone." Dripping with existential dread, it continually presents strange occurrences that will have us debating the meaning of what we've just viewed right through the ending. *Stalker* (1979) can be streamed for free on HBOMax, the Criterion Channel or Kanopy. It's also available for rent on Amazon Prime and AppleTV. The Columbus Library has two copies on disc.
