ABOUT THE SHOW
Inscribing the Temporal is a survey of
recent and current artistic and curatorial practices taking place outside
established institutional frameworks in New York City and Vienna. The
exhibition will focus on individual and collective efforts by artists
and curators that culminate in public contexts as events, installations,
happenings, screenings, performances, and social situations, many of which
are site-specific and fleeting in nature. While most of these projects
and artworks were not produced for presentation in a gallery setting,
Inscribing the Temporal attempts to re-present these works at the Kunsthalle
Exnergasse as a
means of questioning whether ephemeral art can be inscribed. The artworks
and projects within the exhibition will be contextualized with archives
documenting the history of relevant artistic activities taking place in
Vienna and New York.
