ROUNDTABLE DISCUSSION

 Vienna’s independent scene as an international, decentralized institution.

An early discussion at an Independent Space Index Stammtisch led to a proposal that Vienna’s independent scene could be considered a large and diverse intergenerational institution, presenting hundreds of exhibitions and projects per year, creating a responsive web of international networks.

Questions about the role of these small collaborative cultural initiatives run parallel to those of valuation of individual artistic effort. This gives us a clue to what the ‘mission’ of such a decentralized institution might be. What should strategies of re-presentation be, whether it be through festivals, joint exhibitions, institutional invitations, or historical analysis?

 WORKING ROOM


Saturday 25 June 2022

at Neuer Kunstverein Wien | Autohaus Saint Marx

Rennweg 110-116 Vienna 1030

Working Room is a transmission of an exhibition currently on display at Asortymentna Kimnata, in Ivano-Frankivsk, Ukraine, and a continuation of the discussion amongst the participants of the artist-initiated residency.

“It is important for us to work in Ukraine and, being inside, try to reflect on our artistic practice and consider different artistic strategies. One of the most visible approaches in the art of rapid response is to show the image of the victim or the winners. In this context, we think of alternative approaches, which include the actual role of art and the artist as a figure. One of the goals of the residency was to create new material objects that can testify in Ukraine and in the global context.”
