4th International Woodcarving Symposium

From 18th to 21st May 2022, the 4th International Woodcarving Symposium "Art on the Chestnut Trail" will take place in the artistic city of Klausen. Artists from all over the world will create something special to enchant our vacation region with their works.

The sculptures that will be created this year are not only artistically and aesthetically sophisticated, but are also suitable for sitting or lying down! At selected locations along the Chestnut Trail, these "hands-on" sculptures will invite hikers to have a break and rest. Art thus becomes accessible and tangible. The material available to the artists is sturdy chestnut wood, as the chestnut is characteristic of the cultural landscape of this region in the Eisack Valley.

There are no limits to the creativity of the participants. The sculptures can have all kinds of forms of expression... figurative - abstract, practical - conceptual, from one block - in several parts...
