KUNSTHALLE EXNERGASSE

We are looking for innovative, socially engaging and experimental exhibition projects in a wide variety of formats.

permanent temporär evolves over a five-week series of interconnected invitations and events, culminating in an exhibition whose opening will only take place at the end of the process.

As the starting point of permanent temporär, the spatial setting by Julian Siffert and Seth Weiner will be presented. In Hilma Bäckström’s Puppenmuttis Selbstbedienungsbar, visitors can help themselves and each other, and Francis Ruyter will launch the Regular Wednesdays series as its first host.

Sheeko, sheeko is a relaxed, open gathering. The welcoming atmosphere fosters a space for sharing stories, experiences, and wisdom from one’s own life and many years of activism.

We focus on the reciprocal influences and relationships between artists (biographies) and art spaces: Which potentials arise for self-empowerment and emancipation from collective historiography and how is knowledge collaboratively produced and transmitted? Similarly, the audience in the hall is welcome to join in the discussion with their own questions or statements, and naturally, a healthy dose of gossip is always welcome.

In the programme kitchen, everyone comes together to discuss professional paths and invitation policies, shifts in discourse, gaps, power structures, and spaces of possibility. They reflect on friendship economies and networks and how all of this shapes artistic programmes, but also art scenes.

Loud and faint, perceptible and obscured, the group exhibition High on Distortion, Low on Reception explores the sounds of our present – layered with noise, lost in resonance. At the core is their role as communication, sensation, and cultural experience.

Synergies of Solidarity is an inclusive exhibition project for queer contemporary art and culture that transcends the traditional boundaries of presenting art. It creates spaces of dialogue, education, and social transformation.
