Crystin Moritz: Would You Dare? A talk on AI as Artistic Tool

Crystin Moritz is a Vienna-based visual artist working with photography, video, and artificial intelligence. After studying photography in Berlin, she assisted Axel Hoedt and Laetitia Negre in London and developed a practice initially rooted in fashion photography. Her work has since expanded into AI-generated and hybrid image-making, where analogue aesthetics meet digital processes. Through exhibitions and collaborations in Austria and internationally, Moritz explores questions of identity, perception, and visual authorship, creating unsettling and speculative image worlds that challenge established photographic conventions.

Tan Mu: Signal, opening reception

Tan Mu: Signal, opening reception

Tan Mu’s Signal series imagines the networks of submarine fiber-optic cables as “digital constellations.” The paintings are vibrant, intense in the making, composed and poetic as images. We’re showing five paintings from Signal and contextualizing the series with Tan Mu’s other works in recent years, about technological infrastructure and points of view, about representation of space and time, about consciousness and self-reflection. It is, among the artist’s exciting shows opening in the next months, a rare opportunity to see the Signal series in focus.

August concert: Bence Temesvári

August concert: Bence Temesvári

The solo cello concert accompanies Elisabeth Kihlström’s architectural intervention in Tuning, in another form of bodily negotiation and structural resistance. Gaspar Cassadó’s Suite for Solo Cello (1926) draws on the rhythmic vitality of Spanish dance, marked by sudden contrasts and expressive breadth. J.S. Bach’s Suite No. 6 in D Major (BWV 1012), written for the now-rare five-string violoncello piccolo, extends the instrument’s range to produce a luminous resonance with formal complexity and architectural clarity. Join us on 7 August for this guided journey through movement and form in sound.

Bence Temesvári is Solocellist of the Vienna Symphony Orchestra.

Tuning: Elisabeth Kihlström

to 19 Jul

Tuning: Elisabeth Kihlström

How do architectural and corporeal boundaries intersect? Elisabeth Kihlström works with a group of performers to activate the gallery space, literally, by attaching taut metal strings to the architecture and turning it into a resonance chamber. Through measured movement and physical tension, the performers' bodies generate and modulate sound, creating a live composition shaped by strain, gesture, and resistance. The piece reveals the hidden sonic environment of the built structure. It is a choreography of negotiation, tension, and collision between flesh, force, and form.

After the performance, the strings remain in the space as a spatial intervention, complementing four of Kihlström’s sculptures previously exhibited at Kunstmuseum Bonn when she received the 2024 Dorothea von Stetten Art Award. On view until 19 July.

Silent Opening: Maja Vukoje

to 1 Jun

Silent Opening: Maja Vukoje

It’s open, but silent... Come in for your time alone with Maja’s paintings. You have 20 minutes to yourself: slow down, get a close look, perhaps meditate.

At the end of the day, if you feel like taking home the painting that you’ve come to love—and collecting all the precious memories others have had with that piece—make a silent bid in the backroom.

16–26 May: viewing only.

30 May–1 June: viewing plus the bidding option.

The works are on view only for 9 days.

Maja Vukoje (b. 1969, Düsseldorf) lives and works in Vienna. She studied at the University of Applied Arts Vienna in the master classes of Maria Lassnig and Christian Ludwig Attersee. Her solo presentations were held at Belvedere 21 (Vienna, 2020); Künstlerhaus, Halle für Kunst und Medien (Graz, 2017); Salzburger Kunstverein (2011); Secession (2006, Vienna); Bank Austria Kunstforum (Vienna, 2005), among others. Vukoje has received prominent awards such as the City of Vienna Prize for Fine Arts (2020), the Outstanding Artist Award, Federal Chancellery of Austria (2015), and the Bank Austria Creditanstalt’s Georg Eisler Award (2004). From 2013 to 2021, she was a board member of Secession.
