Workshop in Vienna: Interventions/ participatory "exercises" in relation to current exhibitions

Based on the seminar "Practices - Intervention / Participation" (see information on the base), we will conceive and realize artistic interventions on "empathetic exchange" in relation to / responding to art projects and exhibitions in Vienna, which raise current social issues on this topic.
For example: "Aaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!" by Nora Turato (Kunsthalle Wien) or "In the spirit of friendship", Dom Museum.

By working with Susanne Prinz, the students have the opportunity to get to know an internationally renowned curator on a personal level.

The interventions/projects and experiences of the workshop will be feeeding into the SPACEX "Townhall Event": Students are invited to actively participate and help shape this international final event of the EU project.

The workshop will provide skills and experience in relation to current social issues and the testing of artistic means and performative interventions.
The students will show the interventions of the workshop in a final presentation in VOZ 7.
