What in this world is still sacred? In a time of holy wars the longing for true transcendence persists. "Profane et Sacre" asks visitors to explore their conception of spirituality and materialism, of power and the sublime and how they intertwine. With a focus on painting, both artists transgress the border into the third dimension, making their works a mind-opening crossover oscillating between sculpture, installation and classic oil painting. Riello's delicate frescos of the Vatican take on new scopes of meaning, being painted upon models of war submarines.

This interest in war equipment is also evident in the work of Rousserie. Radiating intensity, „Painting on army stretcher" uses an original Second World War handbarrow as canvas. This work is considered to be one of Rousserie´s masterpieces and has never before been exhibited. His arms paintings stand in strong contrast to his pictures representing spiritual spaces in form of sacral architecture.
