✨ Portrait of the artist: G. Jo Hruschka ✨
We visited the (glass) artist Günther Joachimsthaler - better known as G. Jo Hruschka - in his studio Männerhaut in Zwiesel. There we talked to him about his creative path, his inspiration and much more.
One of his works was on display in our exhibition Schöpferisches Frauenau until the beginning of the year. You can find the full interview on our website - just click on the link in the bio! 🔗

From Isidor Gistl's visionary entrepreneurship to the final years of glass production - it left a lasting impression on the region.
