Chiharu Shiota's site-specific installation with the evocative title "Who am I Tomorrow?" at the former assembly hall of Kunstraum Dornbirn unfolds the fascinating impression of a living, oversized and independent organism. It seems to hover above the visitors, precisely fitted into the protective historical architecture, connected to it by an uncountable number of red connecting lines. Shiota here turns the inside out. The representability o...

In that endeavor, it searches for new interfaces between art, architecture, film, archaeology, culture of remembrance and sustainable building practices.

TheCityAsAHouse" is a visually stunning art book that challenges the concept of the private home. In this experiment, a 30-year-old European lives in Tokyo without a private home, relying only on a smartphone. Traditional private spaces such as bedrooms, kitchens, and bathrooms are abolished, and public spaces become the norm for daily needs. The book explores the implications of the shift of privacy to non-domestic spaces and asks whether a n...

Hannes Schüpbach enters into dialogue with Kira Blazek Ziaii, Stephen Watts, Éléonore Bernard, Heba Raphaëlle Meffre, Flurin Cuonz, Marco Baschera and Jiajia Zhang, exploring the concept of movement that starts within us - in dance, poetry, fashion, music and language. How singular are our gestures? Where do transitions between individuals come into play? Where does a shared cultural space come into being? In this venture (the title references...

SYSTEMRELEVANT is a show that takes possession of the term "systemically relevant", a term that has been the subject of much discussion in recent years. This exhibition rethinks it, asking questions without knowing the answers. It is also an establishment of position for the new artistic director of the Künstlerhaus, a consciously personal and programmatic show that does not shy away from using the means of an exhibition to think about what an...

Heinz Wägers Bedeutung für die neuere, mittlerweile 60 Jahre andauernde Architekturgeschichte Vorarlbergs ist nicht vordergründig, aber mannigfach. Vieles verlief ohnedies in kooperativen und vielfach verflochtenen Bewegungen, die kaum singuläre Geschichtsträger kannten. Bis heute entzieht sich diese bemerkenswerte Architekturgeschichte allen Manifesten und akademischen Theoriebildungen. Umso bedeutsamer ist Heinz Wägers Beitrag als Ideenträge...

The smaller-than-life-sized figures that populate the wood-paneled rooms of the Museum of Tyrolean Regional Heritage appear dark and grotesque. There are strange figures made of plaster, textile and bronze that you encounter here. Some things about them seem familiar, others seem terribly strange. What is body, what is mask, what is costume? Markus Wörgötter's series of works "Affektproband" includes several dozen sculptures. A selection of th...

The flow of images in the book Between Landing and Take-Off takes viewers on a journey without a physical or timed destination. Through their literal interplay and beyond any linear narrative, Lycien-David Cséry's photo- graphs develop a subjective illustration of his experiences between 2013 and 2020. His observations however do not disembogue as a private di- ary but rather resemble the study of momentary lucidity within states of transition...
