EIN ZIMMER FÜR MICH

Vernissage: Wednesday, 11th of September, 18:00 

Virginia Woolf schreibt: „Eine Frau braucht Geld und ein Zimmer für sich allein, wenn sie Bücher schreiben möchte.” Diese beiden Minimalforderungen sind seit 1929 inspirierend, ermutigend und geraten nicht in Vergessenheit. Es sind Ideen, die jede Person betreffen und für jegliches Metier gelten. Universell? Vielleicht irgendwann ein Menschenrecht? Die eingeladenen Künstlerinnen zeigen Arbeiten, die die Raumausdehnung proben und diese, jede auf ihre Art und Weise, zelebrieren.

Escape. Resonance

Kunstraum Steiermark at Vienna Contemporary

Artists: Lena Baloch,  Michael Fanta, Susanna Hofer, 
Nina Schuiki, Lisa Reiter, Nathalie Koger, Katharina Pichler, Miriam Schmid, Eva-Maria Jocham & Ulrich A. Reiterer

Curator: Jakob Kolb

In an attention economy, resonance appears to be
the most valuable good: Rather than resembling a
harmonious interplay, it functions as a broad public
echo that does not have to last long, and the quality of
which is of little importance - what counts is quantity.
How can we break free from this dynamic without
renouncing it entirely, without escapism or
a Biedermeier renaissance, without abandoning all
relevance? How can we escape such a resonance but
remain (politically) active?
Escape. Resonance assembles works by ten artists
from Styria who explore the tension amidst these very
issues. The curator and artists are currently part of
the residency programs of Land Steiermark and the
scholarship program KUNSTRAUM STEIERMARK.

Art Quarter Budapest
site-specific outdoor installation, later translated to an indoor gallery setting

paper, cardboard, tempera, wallpaste, fabric, found objects

Lisa Reiters work „Grids, breath and a windowsill“ is a site specific installation, which is located between the public and the domestic, using found materials as precisely made objects and images that build a frame around the grasp of her observations in the surrounding area in Budapest.

finding room between opposites, 2023

spacial intervention
found and already damaged spots on the walls of one floor at Kunstuniversität Linz, Brückenkopfgebäude Hauptplatz 6
deep primer, dispersion paint, dispersion adhesive, nylon flocking
dimensions variable

Finding room between opposites includes on the one hand the search for and on the other hand the visualization of all damaged areas on the walls of the entire second floor of one of the two „Brückenkopf“ buildings on Linz‘s main square. Those buildings were built between 1940 and 1943 and are part of the monumental design of the banks of the Danube in Linz planned during the Nazi regime times. 

Today it houses the main location of the University of Art and Design Linz, and I am concerned about the artistic practice in such a historically charged building, the use of which turns out to be a fragile situation for me during my work.

weil die Geste banal ist, 2021

Installation
based on the poetry collection „Mutantengarten“ by Volha Hapeyeva, Afro-Asian Institute Graz
dimensions approx. 380 x 380 x 150 cm
kerosene wax, pantyhose, nylon

Based on individually selected phrases throughout „Mutantengarten“, Lisa Reiter has created an expansive installation that attempts to atmospherically approximate the mood of the poems. 

The clear construct, the net in the room on which everything hangs, relates to the structure and clear rhythm of Volha Hapeyeva‘s poems. The many individual wax cubes are suspended from this net and determine the overall form of the installation with their own weight. On the one hand, all the cubes are identical in their dimensions, and yet none of them resembles the others due to the soft black drawing of the elements made of fine pantyhose.

 
schwerelosigkeit 
hebt dich auf - du fliegst in den raum 
bis es zeit ist zu landen
innerhalb fester grenzen
in einem konkreten land
einer wohnung
einem anderen körper  

Lisa Reiter attempts to create an expression with her work that is clear and determined, but also delicate and full of empathy - just like Volha Hapeyeva‘s poems. 

If you set the entire installation in vibration, all the individual parts vibrate and it seems as if they are communicating with each other as well as with the outside world.
