Vernissage imaginaire with ICE Wine – Celebrating Christmas, New Year and Easter with Johann Sebastian Bach
Book series LOUNGE 1 – volume II
Editor: Gabriele Walter
A festive occasion like an anniversary or a vernissage is the perfect opportunity to enjoy a fine wine. This gave us the idea to create a series of books called “Art Château” celebrating the special relationship between wine and art. Wine as a cultural treasure goes far beyond drinking. Wine cannot be considered a muse, it is however, said that only those who value art, poetry, and music, can truly treasure it. The special occasion for the book is the 340th birthday of Johann Sebastian Bach and his festive music for Christmas, New Year and Easter.
Art, Wine, Poetry, and Music
Music suggestion: Johann Sebastian Bach’s “Sanctus in D Major, BWV 241″ and other festive music of Bach
Cultural and historical gem: The romantic wine landscapes on the rivers Rhine and Nahe
Book series “Art Château”: Art and Wine – Vernissage imaginaire
This art and gift book introduces 36 selected artists from 19 countries around the globe. Feel free to pick a painting, mindfully dwell on it following our instructions for meditative art observation, and relax – as you would at a winetasting. Art has always been the product of history and contemplation. In the same vein, based on the “Enter-into-Art” concept, each book in the “LOUNGE 1” series will introduce the famous cultural treasure of a specific wine region, and one or several works of music to accompany it.
International Artworks and Poems
Bilingual art gift book with 135 artworks and 16 haiku poems from 19 countries.
