Art on porcelain and pictures & a journey through time from the clockmaker's workshop

When thinking of porcelain, many people still associate it with the familiar floral designs on picture plates, tiles and tableware. The diverse exhibits by artist and porcelain painter Susanne Reisser from Stockach-Wahlwies show that porcelain also exists in three dimensions and can therefore be designed in a completely different way with colour and imagination. Her use of colour is harmonious, surprisingly modern and the results are special. She usually works with four colours, which she mixes together to create her desired shades. She also fires her art herself. And she paints. Portraits and landscapes. This diverse art is on display here, from landscapes on canvas to explosive rivers on porcelain. Here, a small white porcelain Venus in black fishnet stockings reclines languidly on a gilded pedestal, while there, Frida Kahlo gazes from the canvas with an impenetrable face of pain. An award-winning large shell combines fish and flowers on its belly. On an extravagant vase almost 50 cm high, a colourfully decorated beauty gazes down at the ground. Original porcelain pictures à la Hundertwasser make you curious to see more. Modern and classic styles, painted and spatulated, are presented in great variety.
The development of the clock is presented by an absolute expert in this exciting exhibition: master clockmaker Hubert Nold from Peißenberg. He knows his way around his little and big treasures. Among them is an absolute gem: a chapel clock from around 1600 to 1700 – the oldest specimen in the collection. There are also pocket watches (starting with the spindle clock, which was first created around 1800) and wristwatches, also from the early days around the end of the 1800s to the beginning of the 1900s. As a master of his craft, Hubert Nold sheds light on the development of timepieces and demonstrates the art of watchmaking and repair using the collection of around 20 to 30 pieces.
