BOXING IN ART – EXHIBITION

Star guest: Regina Halmich

The exhibition will feature artworks from the past hundred years which are devoted to the subject of boxing. Many of the originals displayed at the event have already appeared on the cover of the well-known American boxing magazine “The Ring,” “the Bible of Boxing,” which celebrates its one-hundredth anniversary this year, including an original painting of Max Schmeling from 1936.

Let yourself be transported into the dazzling world of boxing! The exhibition will be organized by Wegerich Fine Art Collection, which will be displaying the artworks in its collection in public for the first time.

Well-known British artist Richard T. Slone, who lives in Las Vegas, will be attending. Richard T. Slone has been the Official Artist of the International Boxing Hall of Fame (IBHOF) since 1996, combining boxing and art with his inimitable style. His displayed works depict famous boxing matches such as Joe Frazier vs. Muhammad Ali and the “dream fight,” Tyson Fury vs. Mike Tyson. Slone has also painted both Klitschkos for the Hall of Fame. These original artworks will be displayed at the exhibition.

Star guest Regina Halmich is, to this day, the most successful female boxer of all time, and in June 2022 she became one of the first women to be inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame, as well as the second active German boxer to be inducted, after Max Schmeling. Ms. Halmich will answer a few questions and will also be available for group photos.
