Art and the full moon: Andreas Hinkel's fascinating exhibition in Dresden!
There is reason to be happy in Dresden's vibrant art scene: Today, June 11, 2025, at the time of the full moon, the new exhibition “AMBIVALENCE AT THE LATE HOUR” by Andreas Hinkel opened in the Full Moon Gallery at Hechtstrasse 17. The opening takes place at 8:00 p.m. and admission is free. This exhibition will be on view until July 9th and is already an exciting event for art lovers.
Andreas Hinkel, born in Saxony in 1959, has made a name for himself through his impressive works. After studying with Prof. Gottfried Bammes in Dresden, he initially worked as a theater painter in Radebeul. In 1994 he opened his first gallery in Jülich and since 2011 he has been running the Kunsthaus No7 in Starkenberg, OT Naundorf in Thuringia. There he regularly shows his passion for painting and brings a breath of fresh air into the art landscape.
Art and nature combined
Hinkel's works are characterized by a deep connection to nature. His oil on canvas paintings are characterized by earthy and magnificent color palettes that convey subtle messages about growth and decay. These stylistic features classify it as Leipzig school to, a movement of modern painting that flourished in the 1970s and 1980s. Artists of this movement, such as Bernhard Heisig and Wolfgang Mattheuer, were known for their critical approaches and passionate use of color, which can also be found in Hinkel's work.
The Full Moon Gallery, an art space run by Jugend- & Kulturprojekt e.V., has developed into a popular location for exhibitions since 2020. The gallery offers a platform for creative minds and has already presented eleven solo exhibitions and one collective exhibition. Hinkel's exhibition is complemented by nine large shop windows that are illuminated at night, allowing the artist's work and themes to be experienced outside the gallery.
A look at the Leipzig school
The Leipzig school is not a closed style, but rather an exciting juxtaposition of different forms of expression, which was shaped by a variety of artists. This movement not only offers depth in painting, but also a conscious social analysis. From Walter Arnold to Neo Rauch, many artists have left their mark and Hinkel also contributes to this great legacy of art history with his individual signature.
The opening of “AMBIVALENCE AT THE LATE HOUR” invites not only art enthusiasts but also newcomers to the world of painting. A visit promises a deep insight into the creative and artistic creativity of Andreas Hinkel, in which closeness to nature and stylistic diversity come together.
