WUK performing arts
Notice
23.04.2025
Last year, during a cover shoot for a WUK performing arts program folder, a conflict arose regarding the use of the resulting photographic material. We acknowledge that this conflict was not well resolved, and we take the recently published statement by the involved performer seriously. We are aware of our responsibility as an institution and are therefore in a process of reflection both within the team and with external consulting experts (including D-Arts) in order to analyze the situation and learn from it.
Although the entire former WUK performing arts team was named in the statement, we want to emphasize that the responsibility for the decision-making lay with the artistic director despite being on parental leave at the time.
We believe in personal dialogue and exchange and are open to any further questions.
WUK performing arts, as one of four program divisions of WUK Kultur, presents a variety of formats in the WUK Saal, the Foyer, the Projektraum, sometimes the inner courtyard and repeatedly also the urban space outside the former locomotive factory at Währinger Straße 59. We thus create visibility for a lively independent dance and performance scene and are particularly interested in interdisciplinary formats at the interfaces of dance, performance, installation, lecture, concert, party, video art and site-specific works. Our program reflects the ideas and themes of a major international city, its inhabitants and its artists. We trace these, help to shape them and let them take effect in the spaces of the WUK.
