Mirjam Fehr, Head of Marketing Winterthur, during her laudazio with photographer Christoph Schleiss
Mirjam Fehr, Head of Marketing Winterthur, guided all visitors through the exhibition at around 7.30 pm and offered an interesting insight into the history of the artists and their works. Did you know, for example, how Steinberggasse got its distinctive name? According to a legend that is still popular today, the residents always had to keep a supply of boulder stones to maintain the city wall during warfare - hence the name Steinberggasse.
After all the artists had been introduced and their works praised, Stephan Herter from HerterWeine offered a special wine tasting with fine wines from Winterthur's organic vines. There was a lively exchange of ideas well into the evening, and you could see the collective joy on the faces of the participants.

At its conclusion, visitors left the exhibition inspired and with a broader understanding of Winterthur's artistic diversity and cultural heritage. The combination of art, real estate and culinary delights provided the perfect setting for encounters and stimulating conversations that will certainly be remembered for a long time to come.
Many thanks to all those involved in making this special evening possible and to all the guests who contributed to the success of the event with their curiosity and openness.
