The Collection Domnick does not only mean his international
collection of abstract paintings and sculptures of the time after WorldWar
II but only the place of presentation: The building is a private house for
arts in a special athmosphere made by the architect Paul Stohrer and
integrated in the landscape of Aichtal and Albtrauf. There are paintings of Baumeister, Hartung and Winter, Piene, Dorazio and Brüning, Vedova, Rainer, Vostell. In the large garden there are sculptures of bronce, iron and steel: Avramidis, Lardera, Venet – in dialogue with nature. In 2005 the house and park were renovated.

Go on, never stop was Ottomar Domnick's motto, so his foundation continues presenting events with concerts, movies, exhibitions, lectures. In the special athmosphere of the collection recitals get an extraordinary density triggering synesthetic sensations. |
