27 large-format works are currently on display at Kastenmeiers Restaurant in Dresden’s Taschenbergpalais. Under the title “Farbrausch,” an exhibition is on view through October 9,
Visitors to Kastenmeiers through October 9 will encounter not only the restaurant’s cuisine but also the strikingly colorful art of Saxon artist Ann Gol’dor. In the 27 works on display, the artist combines painting, photography, and experiments with materials. Ann Gol’dor uses bold colors not merely as a decorative element. Her works emerge from the combination of different techniques and materials—ranging from photography and mixed media to painting and works on aluminum, sometimes complemented by gold and silver accents.
Her upcycling works are particularly interesting. Existing images and objects are not simply reused, but artistically reinterpreted. One example is the work “Punkt 12,” which features a deer at its center. The piece has already won an award and is also tied to a personal family story of the artist.
Another section of the exhibition ventures beyond the traditional four walls. Under the theme “Art for the Garden,” Gol’dor presents works on weather-resistant materials. This allows the images to be displayed outdoors—on a patio or in the garden.
The artistic background of this artist, who has been working independently for 30 years, lies in photography: Gol’dor is a trained master photographer. Her work spans a wide range, from nude photography and portraits to interior design. For example, she furnished the “Bei Schumann” hotel in Kirschau with 30 pieces. Exhibitions have taken her to Berlin, among other places; in 2025, she was represented in New York for the first time as part of the German-American art project “Black, Red, Gold – and What Comes Next?”
The images at Kastenmeiers are predominantly square in format. The sizes range from 72 × 72 to 140 × 140 centimeters, and the prices range from 700 to 3,000 euros. “Farbrausch” is already the 105th exhibition to be shown at Kastenmeiers since the restaurant opened.
Admission is free and not tied to a restaurant visit. Kastenmeiers opens daily at 5:00 p.m.; exhibition visitors can begin their tour as early as 2:00 p.m.
