Irene Maria Ganser shows screen prints of well known international sailing regattas, such as the Barcolana Regatta in Triest, scenes of the RC44 Austria Cup in Gmunden, the Kiel Sailing Week or the Maxi Yacht Rolex Cup in Porto Cervo.

The primary source of the works are photographs taken by the artist herself at various regatta sites. The respective graphic compositions of the silk printings are already laid down in the original photographies. In the process, abstraction and modification techniques are applied including special colouring and printing procedures.
Through these artistic methods, racing scenes are put into different perspectives and regatta sequences depicted from new angles of vision.

A special interest is also dedicated to ski races.
