Carsten Hölscher – Paintings and drawings
Painting meets music: new art exhibition at Georg’s Gallery
A new art exhibition is on the program at Georg’s Gallery from February: artist Carsten Hölscher from Ahaus is presenting an extensive selection of his pictorial works for the first time under the title “Painting and Drawing”. The Gronau Community Foundation invites you to the vernissage on February 7, 2026 at 7 pm, admission is free. Carsten Hölscher is best known to many as a musician. His artistic talent became apparent early on, initially with a clear focus on music. He studied electric bass and double bass, built his own recording studio in Ahaus in 2005, now works as a music producer and music teacher and regularly performs on stage with the Wild Honey Acoustic Trio. It is only in the last few years that he has also devoted himself more intensively to the visual arts.
As an autodidact, Hölscher developed his own signature style. His motifs are predominantly landscapes from the Münsterland region, which he captures both in drawings and oil paintings on canvas. More abstract works in which he explores the physicality of color itself are also his specialty. His works are characterized by calm moods, clear lines and a close connection to his home region. For Hölscher, art means above all expression, deceleration and a conscious view of his surroundings.
The works can be viewed from February 7 to March 28, 2026, on Fridays during market hours from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. and additionally on February 22 and March 15 from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m.
With this exhibition, Georgs Galerie not only offers insights into the artistic work of a regional artist, but also a varied cultural event that combines art and music in a special way. The exhibition will conclude with a special highlight: on March 28, 2026, the artist’s band will give a concert at Georg’s Galerie. They will present an eclectic mix of styles from pop, jazz, soul, rock’n’roll and country, bringing the combination of visual art and music to life once again. Tickets for the concert are available at www.georgsgalerie-epe.de.
