Curators Elisabeth Falkensteiner and Nora Mayr will guide visitors through the exhibition. 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.

Wie klingt ein Kunstwerk? – Ok, das ist vielleicht noch einfach. – Aber wie klingt eine
Schulklasse, unsere Klasse? Was macht gerade unseren Klang aus? Ist der Sound jeder
Klasse anders? Und vor allem, wo klinge ich in dieser Gruppe? Innerhalb der Ausstellung komponieren die Schüler*innen gemeinsam ein Klangstück, das ihre Klasse widerspiegelt.

The two live sound sessions are dedicated to listening as a practice of turning toward the unfiltered or the seemingly disruptive.

We are pleased to welcome Tobias Tavella to our artist and research residency program.

In the discussion with the artists, questions are explored that revolve around what is heard and what falls silent.
