Shitela Abdel Ghani
Abdel Ghani's large-format paintings seem to breathe, to pulsate, to live. "I always paint in series, I always work in parallel," she says. The arrangement of the spontaneous series has a performative character, also because the paintings correspond with her sculptures and installations. Shitela Maria Biallas Abdel Ghani has been working in her studio in the Pittlerwerke since 2022.
Jakob Ripp
Jakob's workshop at Pittlerwerke is a space for planning and designing. A small team of architects, engineers and programmers have been working on a 4m x 2m drawing machine at weekends since last summer. A modular machine that draws while Jakob is away. It provides a translation from our digital world back into a simple drawing with pen on paper; with ink on fabric; or acrylic on window glass.

Felix is a trained carpenter. Seven years ago, he completed his master's degree and founded his own company. He has now been working at Pittlerwerke for almost 6 years. Most of the time he can be found on the roofs of the old factory buildings, which he renovates and restores. Thanks to his close collaboration with the architects, engineers and other trades on the site, he is also constantly involved in the development and realisation of other projects.
Herbst Freitag
The two designers came to Pittlerwerke with their workshop in 2021. Behind the blue garage doors, they create and manufacture minimalist designs from steel. Their objects can be integrated into almost any room and their design blurs the conventional contours between space and interior.
Stefan Schwarzer
We are excited to welcome Stefan Schwarzer to the pittlerwerke family at the end of the summer. The talented artist, known for his expressive paintings and innovative sculptures, will enrich our community. His works, often inspired by nature, captivate with their deep emotionality and impressive technique.
