An evening that will be remembered: The first Arthentico Art performance by Udo Hohenberger and Sonja Oberkofler.
We recently presented our first live art performance, "Between Sound and Lines," featuring internationally renowned artist Udo Hohenberger and saxophonist Sonja Oberkofler, who had never worked together before. Yet, from the first note, the two artists seamlessly merged their talents. As the performance progressed, Hohenberger and Oberkofler's roles evolved and changed, with Hohenberger becoming more absorbed in his canvas while Oberkofler adapted her playing to his brushstrokes. In front of an audience of about 70 people, Hohenberger created an impressive work of art, perfectly accompanied by Oberkofler's saxophone melodies.

Artist Udo Hohenberger and saxophonist Sonja Oberkofler, have never worked together before. Nevertheless, the two artists seamlessly blended their talents from the very first note.
Our guests had the unique opportunity to witness the creative process of such an accomplished artist and were amazed at how the almost ethereal view slowly disappeared behind each brush stroke. Hohenberger explained that the dissolution of the celestial background is an important aspect of the performance, as it illustrates the transience of art and the constant evolution of the artistic process.
Martin Fabisch, the district leader of Vienna's 8th district, was among those present and expressed his enthusiasm.

Pushing the envelope: Arthentico's unconventional approach to exhibitions
“In today’s fast-paced world, it can only be an advantage to take risks and allow for spontaneity. We must constantly rethink our strategies and thus adapt to the current zeitgeist.”
For Arthentico, the event was a new and exciting venture, as Pajak explains: " In today's fast-paced world, taking risks and allowing spontaneity can only be an advantage. We have to constantly rethink our strategies and thus adapt to the current zeitgeist. That's why we didn't want to start the new year with a classic exhibition, but rather offer our guests a very special experience. "In any case, the evening was a complete success, and the painting created during the performance, as well as other works by Hohenberger, can now be purchased here at arthentico.com. And Arthentico continues to offer artists and musicians a platform to present themselves, and will certainly attract even more attention on the Austrian art market.
Arthentico would like to express a heartfelt thank you to our main sponsor of the event, Schlumberger. Schlumberger's delicious and refreshing sparkling wine was the perfect complement to what was already a great evening. We would also like to thank Sofia Usoltsev, who was the musical director and contributed to the success of the event.
