Director Paul Smaczny accompanied painter Michael Triegel for several years and shows in great detail and insight the creation of a significant work of art. Triegel not only opens the doors to his studio, but also provides deep insights into his understanding of art, religion, and family. The screening will be followed by a discussion with Michael Triegel and Paul Smaczny.

About

Michael Triegel's painting style differs from that of his colleagues at the Leipzig School. He paints like the Old Masters and cites Michelangelo, Raphael, and Dürer as his role models. In 2020, Triegel received an extraordinary commission: to design the destroyed central section of the altar in Naumburg Cathedral. Almost 500 years earlier, the painting by Lucas Cranach the Elder fell victim to iconoclasm.
