Leon Löwentraut at Art Miami
Premiere: The pop star of European art presents his works at three exhibitions in Miami
“No breathing space,
History is being made,
it goes forward.” (Fehlfarben, German Punk Band)
German artist Leon Löwentraut is the shooting star of the European art scene: just 24 years old, he inspires and polarizes art fans and art collectors throughout Europe with spectacular exhibition openings and colorful works.
Leon Löwentraut had his first exhibition at the age of 15 – in a gallery near Munich. His first international exhibition followed two years later, in London. After that it was one after the other: Singapore, Berlin, Düsseldorf, New York, Florence, Copenhagen, Venice, Vienna, Zurich and Madrid – always with a tremendous media response. “Child prodigy” or “pop star of art” were the headlines of the media.
At Miami Art Week, the exceptional young artist with his explosive paintings is now represented for the first time and three times:
At Art Miami, one of the most important fairs for contemporary art in America, the renowned Wiesbaden-based Galerie Rother is showing four of the artist’s current works.
The important art fair opens its doors on Tuesday, November 29, 2022 at 7 pm at One Herald Plaza for a selected audience for the VIP preview. You are cordially invited to attend.

From November 30 to December 4, all art lovers can visit the impressive exhibition.
In addition, the legendary Rudolf Budja Gallery will present the art star in a highly sensational solo show. The Grand Opening to the spectacular picture show will take place on Wednesday, November 30, at 7:30 p.m., 1330 18th Street, Miami Beach, Florida, 33139.
Titled “Reflection of a Soul”, the show will feature 12 large-scale works by the German artist. At least two camera crews from Germany are expected to attend the art event.
Gallery owner Rudolf Budja says, “Leon Löwentraut is a youngster who is entering the art market with a whole new way of doing things. We have an exciting audience in Miami that is open to new things. Why am I giving Leon a solo show? He and his work have really impressed me. But not only that: also the way he stages himself and his art. That is highly interesting in terms of art history; I see a new trend there. Leon is a total work of art.”

“It’s a dream come true!” enthuses Leon Löwentraut, “I’m already very excited about Miami’s vibrant art scene.”
The 24-year-old Leon Löwentraut has made a name for himself in the international art world with impressive speed: his art is in demand, his exhibition openings are considered spectacular. His art inspires, irritates and polarizes – the public and the media. He is the face of a young generation of artists who are giving the scene new momentum. The business magazine Forbes chose him as one of the “30 under 30” (the 30 most important personalities under 30). Incidentally, Löwentraut convinced the Forbes jury not only with his powerful, expressive works, but also with art actions such as the “Global Goals” and the “Global Gate,” one of the largest mobile sculptures in the world, which stood at Frankfurt Airport until May 2021. Both art actions deal with the topic of “sustainability”, interpret it artistically and carry it into the world. According to Forbes, Leon Löwentraut is one of the young Germans who have achieved outstanding things in 2020.
His first book has just been published by teNeues Verlag – a large-format illustrated book with an impressive selection of photos documenting his work to date.
Löwentraut emphasizes: “For me, art means freedom!” His goal: “To artistically overcome the limits of time.”
Leon understands painting as an artistically explorative process of knowledge – result open.
Rudolf Budja Gallery offers international art of the 20th century with a focus on Pop Art as well as contemporary artists. Rudolf Budja opened his first gallery in 1988 in his hometown of Graz, followed by galleries in Salzburg, London, New York and Miami (2009), where he lives for much of the year. The Miami gallery was represented – as the only gallery – at Art Miami from the beginning. Budja has worked with art greats such as Jean-Michel Basquiat, among others.
The Rother Gallery prefers to show contemporary painting and sculpture.
