About the exhibition
Collaboration with steirischen herbst '22.
Wars are inscribed into the history of steirischer herbst. The Cold War overshadowed its early years while later editions took place with the Yugoslav Wars right next door. This year, the festival deals with this relationship to war, its causes, and lasting effects.
At the core of steirischer herbst ’22 is an exhibition at Neue Galerie Graz that juxtaposes historical works with contemporary artists’ projects. Performances, discussions, and further collaborations complete the program.
