Max Weiler and Emmy Klocker

The exhibition explores the personal and artistic dialogue between Max Weiler and the Klocker family. The focus is on Weiler’s close relationship with Wolfgang Klocker, which took on a new intensity after Wolfgang’s early death through the sustained commitment of his mother, Emmy Klocker. Her passion for gardening, flowers, and nature provided an ideal setting for Weiler’s nature-inspired painting and led to several commissioned works from his late period. These works are complemented by personal artifacts—photographs, correspondence, and dedications—as well as by Teresa Andreae’s film, which reflects on the foundation’s history. The exhibition space reveals how art, biography, and private life intertwine.
