More than 30 Luxembourgish artists have taken over Larochette Castle for the L’Art-Rochette exhibition, running until 14 September. The show features wood, marble, scrap metal sculptures, pottery, photography, paintings, and jewellery, with most works available for purchase. Highlights include wooden sculptures by Jean-Paul Thielfels, scrap metal works by Karin Mayer, marble sculpture by Eck Lunkes, pottery by Mady Roef, and photography by Marc Barthelemy. Organisers Laurence Anciaux and Ren Spautz launched the event in 2020, and it has grown into a biannual art and photo show.
This exhibition matters because it provides a rare, comprehensive showcase of contemporary Luxembourgish visual art in a historic setting, highlighting the diversity and skill of local artists. By featuring a wide range of media and making works available for sale, it supports the local art economy and fosters community engagement. The event also demonstrates how grassroots initiatives can evolve into significant cultural fixtures, with plans already underway for 2026.
