Salzburg's Festival Summer: From Perriand Retrospective to Baugin Auction Record

A Charlotte Perriand retrospective in Austria showcases 217 works spanning architecture, design, art, and photography. Ryan Gander's 'One Hundred Things Twice' at Salzburger Kunstverein explores paired objects and minimal shifts. Curtis Talwst Santiago transforms the Zwergelgartenpavillon into a non-denominational chapel with colored vinyl, reliefs, and a sound installation by Greg Fox. Florian Aschka, Larissa Kopp, Andy Kassier, and Milena Wojhan combine performance and photography in a summer exhibition; Mafalda Rakoš follows in August. Ulrike Lienbacher's new works engage with Werner and Syme's color system. Christian Kosmas Mayer and Pablo Martínez-Zárate address plants as carriers of memory and colonial history. At auction, Lubin Baugin's 'Stillleben mit Financiers' sold for €440,000 at Vichy Enchères on August 16, 2025, a record for the artist. Peter Halley's 'Dada Ji' is expected to fetch at least €140,000 at the PIN-Benefizauktion on November 15. Breker auctioned a Hasselblad HK 7 hand-held aerial camera from 1941 for €32,000 on September 13.
