What does the mouse bear do in the villa?
In her exhibition, Cäcilia Falk shows oil paintings and works on paper that have been created in her studio in Vienna in recent years. With her painting language and special symbolism, the painter touches children and adults alike and takes them into her own world of pictures.
Cäcilia Falks “Mausbär” has a long history of evolution. One day, according to the artist, he “knocked on the door and didn’t leave”. With a long, pointed nose and erect big ears, these creatures – which are bigger than mice and smaller than bears – move around clothed or unclothed, often barefoot through Falk’s picture landscape. One time one or two mouse bears are hopping through the landscape, detached, carefree and rope-jumping, another time the mouse bear stands quite self-confidently in purple shorts on the left side of the picture.

Cäcilia Falks “Mausbär” has a long history of development. One day, according to the artist, he “knocked on the door and didn’t leave”. With a long, pointed nose and erect big ears, these creatures – which are bigger than mice and smaller than bears – move around clothed or unclothed, often barefoot through Falk’s picture landscape. One time one or two mouse bears jump through the landscape, detached, carefree and rope-jumping, another time the mouse bear stands quite self-confidently in purple shorts to the left of the middle of the picture. The pictures are not always cheerful, but with great ease Falk conveys a wide variety of themes and moods with her mouse bears .
Born in 1963 in Bludenz, Cäcilia Falk studied with Arnulf Rainer at the Academy of Fine Arts. She spent seven years in Italy, one in Paris and currently works in Vienna.
All children are cordially invited to join the artist in her search for the mouse bear.
