Margareta Sandhofer
DISCRETE AUSTRIAN SECRETS. On the Premises. I + II
32 contemporary Austrian artists are represented in an exhibition at the Galaxy Museum of Contemporary Art, Chongqing, China. It compromises spatial installations and interventions, sculpture, painting, drawing, photography, sound and video art. New media and fashion are also included. All media are united in a diverse but homogenous entity reflecting the heterogeneity of the vibrant Austrian art scene. Established artists are shown with a focus on the multifaceted nature of their art. Some younger artists who – despite the high quality of their work – so far have not been attracting international attention are also represented. The works of all artists are perceptible in a thematically woven concept and in a precise aesthetic context relating also to the local context in China, as some of the artworks were created directly on-site.
