Exercises in looking at works of art

Come and talk to us!

There is always more than one way to approach a work of art. For this reason we offer a new format every year and warmly welcome anyone interested to join an in-depth analysis of selected works and themes at the Kunsthaus Graz.

In 2017,  Kunsthaus director Barbara Steiner’s Question of the Month  focused on fundamental issues in art, such as “Who gets to decide what is art?”, “Why do works of art cost millions?”, “Do I only see what I know?”, “Is the art world corrupt?”, “Are scandals the only way to gain attention?”

In 2018  Barbara Steiner’s Exercises in looking at works of artadopts a historical format: Alfred Lichtwark, director of the Hamburg Kunsthalle, first developed this concept in the early 20th century and so marked the beginning of the mediation of visual arts. Barbara Steiner now updates this format, extending it to include contemporary questions around exhibiting art.

Exercises in looking at works of art take place in small groups with a maximum of 15 people. We would therefore ask you to register in advance on 0316/8017-9200 or info@kunsthausgraz.at - the only other requirements for participation are your interest and willingness to get involved in the discussion!
