Cat-Tree: Laura Wagner

Obelisks

Parallel to the joint exhibition Earth Series with Johann Lurf, Laura Wagner shows her multi-part concrete work Obelisks in the foyer of Kunsthaus Graz. She is the first artist to operate with the new exhibition furniture piece, pedestal and intervention space: A Cat-Tree for the Arts by Oliver Klimpel.

Johann Lurf

Earth Series with Laura Wagner and Cavalcade

Once again, in 2019, the Kunsthaus Graz is collaborating with the Diagonale, showing an exhibition of Johann Lurf in the Space03. In the previous year he was awarded the Diagonale Prize for Innovative Cinema of the City of Graz, and is designing the trailer for Diagonale’19. Lurf’s works always mean filmic exploration – exploration that will now continue at the Diagonale’19, too.

Jun Yang

The Artist, the Work and the Exhibition

The solo exhibition by Jun Yang is dedicated to fundamental questions of artistic work: what significance do original works, unique pieces, series and reproductions have in art today? How is artistic practice defined when exchanged with others?

Congo Stars

The exhibition Congo Stars shows the wealth, special features and lines of tradition of locally oriented, popular painting from the 1960s to the present day.

Faith Love Hope

800 Years of the Graz-Seckau Diocese

The exhibition seeks out possible connections between temporal and secular zones, it explores forms of artistic engagement with images and values forged by Christianity.

Haegue Yang: VIP’s Union

– Phase II, Surrender

VIP’s Union enters its second phase in February 2018: the furniture which over the last nine months has been available for use throughout the Kunsthaus is now changing its status and will be on show in a spatial setting in Space02 designed by Haegue Yang.

fiber and liquids

A digital exhibition in the "Darknet"

The digital exhibition fiber and liquids assembles numerous artistic positions that explore the complex relationship between marginalised spaces and strategic retreats, between global interconnectedness and its neo-colonial gaps, big data and informal knowledge systems, digital transactions and their local and physical contextualisation.

play!

Translocal: Museum as Toolbox

Opening: 27.09.2017, 7pm. This experimental show develops a ‘talking museum’, based on a concept devised jointly by five museums.

Up into the Unknown

Peter Cook, Colin Fournier and the Kunsthaus

The exhibition Up into the Unknown traces the creation of the Kunsthaus Graz, exploring thereby the relationship between visionary ideas and their realisation.

Graz Architecture

Rationalists, Aesthetes, Gut Instinct Architects, Democrats, Mediacrats

To actively shape society is the common claim of the Graz architects, whose works can be seen here.

Koki Tanaka

Provisional Studies (Working Title)

What and how can we achieve together? In Tanaka’s first solo exhibition in Austria, the Kunsthaus Graz shows projects that involve collectivity and the potential for joint action.

Haegue Yang

VIP’s Union - Phase I & II

Opening Phase II: 14.02.2018, 7pm. The Korean artist Haegue Yang asked well-known or famous personalities – VIPs – from Graz and Styria to loan a chair or table of their choice. Together these pieces of furniture produce a portrait of the province and city.

Erwin Wurm

Football-sized lump of clay on light blue car roof

The exhibition by Erwin Wurm in the Kunsthaus Graz takes as its starting point the open architectural structure of the Kunsthaus.

Dizziness

Navigating the Unknown

Every day new reports of crisis set the world whirling, whether real or fictional, which can trigger artistic endeavour.

The Logic of the Angels

Llullophone

Installation and Soundcomposition. Based on a mediaeval logic machine that can even “prove” God, musikprotokoll builds an interactive sound installation at Kunsthaus. Vokalensemble NOVA deploys the Llullophone in order to marry very old with very new music.

Body Luggage

Migration of Gestures

This year's steirischer herbst exhibition imagines the migration of cultural signs across borders, of body language as the signs we carry on our backs, even if it is the only luggage we are able to carry.

Kneaded Knowledge

The Language of Ceramics

Space01. With our sights more closely fixed on recent Asian art and with the continued opening up of artistic practice, we are increasingly confronted with this material. The exhibition is designed to throw light on these positions.

Josef Schützenhöfer

71

Josef Schützenhöfer’s latest work 71 is a colossal image that is due to move into the ground floor of Kunsthaus Graz.

Stories from the Edge 2

A road trip to the identities of the Adriatic coast
