The Concrete Star
Paul Wallach – Art That Creates Space
Born in New York in 1960 and now based in Paris, artist Paul Wallach creates works that make lightness and balance tangible. Using materials such as wood, plaster, metal, or fabric, he forms delicate sculptures that seem to float between wall and space – quiet, precise, and poetic.
His well-known work “Down to the Ground”, the large white star on Salzburg’s Krauthügel, has found a new home on the grounds of Hotel Gut Brandlhof. Here, a new place of encounter is emerging – between art, nature, and architecture.
Wallach’s works invite us to pause, shift perspectives, and experience space anew – serene, powerful, and in harmonious dialogue with their surroundings.
