In the summer of 2026, Lake Tegernsee will transform into an open-air gallery: the second Tegernsee Art Masters will be dedicated to the British-German sculptor Sir Tony Cragg, one of the most internationally renowned contemporary artists. Under the title \"Seemeile Nr. 1 \u2013 Elemente\" (Lake Mile No. 1 \u2013 Elements), five monumental sculptures will be on display along the lakeshore from July 3 to October 5. The exhibition is held under the patronage of Anna, Duchess in Bavaria.<\/strong><\/h3>\n

For decades, Cragg\u2019s work has engaged with questions of growth, transformation, and the formation of shape. His sculptures emerge from an exploration of natural processes, biological structures, and the potential of modern materials. Set against the backdrop of Lake Tegernsee, they enter into a dialogue with the landscape, water, and light\u2014thereby altering the perception of both their surroundings and themselves.<\/p>\n

Highlights include the 6.5-meter-high sculpture \"Senders\" in Rottach-Egern, whose white, organic-looking form oscillates between a natural formation and a technical structure. In Bad Wiessee stands the bronze sculpture \"Stacks,\" a multi-layered work that evokes associations with both geological formations and industrial structures. Two further key bodies of work\u2014\"Tommy\" and \"Early Forms St. Gallen\"\u2014are represented at Gut Kaltenbrunn; in these, Cragg transforms everyday shapes into biomorphic sculptures. Finally, right on the lakeshore near Tegernsee Palace, the reflective stainless-steel work \"Points of View\" mirrors its surroundings and makes the concept of perspective itself the subject.<\/p>\n

Starting September 18, the exhibition will be complemented by a display of drawings and additional sculptures at the Olaf Gulbransson Museum. Accompanying talks, events, and art activities are also planned.<\/p>\n

The Tegernsee Art Masters thus creates an open-air art landscape that brings international contemporary art to the Upper Bavarian lake region\u2014transforming Lake Tegernsee for several months into a place where nature, sculpture, and public space meet.<\/p>\n
