On Wednesday, November 7, 2012, at 6:00 PM, we invited you to the vernissage of the exhibition "pastell-zeichnungen" (EN: pastel drawings) by Axel Wunsch. In our series "Science meets Art," drawings by the Chemnitz painter and graphic artist were exhibited at Fraunhofer ENAS starting in November 2012. As part of our exhibition series, Axel Wunsch presented himself as the sixth regional artist with a six-month solo exhibition until April 2013 in the institute building of Fraunhofer ENAS.
On March 7, 2013, a gallery talk with Axel Wunsch took place at Fraunhofer ENAS, followed by a tour of the exhibition.
