Review from 21.06.2019
A vernissage at its best with a spectacular opening.
It is shortly after 9 p.m. when a robot orchestra and robots in black disguises with green flashing LED lights prepare for the arrival of Leon Löwentraut prepare for the arrival of Leon Löwentraut.
The smartphones are quickly taken out of their pockets for photos and the photographers are already in position. On a red carpet in front of the gallery, the numerous illustrious guests wait excitedly for the arrival of Leon Löwentraut.
Out of nowhere, an elegant white helicopter suddenly circles over “B12 The Gallery” in Ibiza and slowly hovers with aerodynamic noise and powerful turbulence as it touches down next to the gallery. Leon Löwentraut sprints out proudly and radiantly in his purple suit and opens à la Hollywood – alongside gallery owner Gerhardt Braun. gallery owner Gerhardt Braun – opens his vernissage on Ibiza for the first time under the title “ICONIC”. After his signature on the large-format poster on the outside wall of the gallery, the guests follow him and storm the exhibition. Twenty large-format, colorful and expressive new works by the twenty-one-year-old artist Leon Löwentraut from Düsseldorf can be admired.
The audience also includes well-known faces such as Mariella Ahrens, Claudia Carpendale and Oliver Pocher. Special mention must be made of boxing legend Wladimir Klitschko, whose size and charisma alone make him impossible to miss. Wladimir Klitschko, a big fan of Leon Löwentraut, announced together with the artist at the vernissage that they would be creating a joint work of art. Once completed, the creative artwork by the two personalities will be donated to the Klitschko Foundation (for the promotion of opportunities for children with a multinational background).
Later in the evening, the catering team from “Casa Colonial” and “Ibizkus Wine” will provide culinary delights and drinks; performance artists and a DJ will entertain the guests at the party afterwards.
The opening day of the vernissage ends as was to be expected: all twenty works of art (worth around 1 million euros) by artist Leon Löwentraut are sold within around three hours.
The summary of the evening:
A spectacular vernissage with a production that you won’t forget in a hurry. Is there still room for improvement?
We’ll see what Leon Löwentraut comes up with next time.
