Description
ARTvent program:
2:00 pm
Guided tour which servers as an introduction and to get to know the art brut center gugging (German)

In August Walla's multi-media approach, photography is both documentation as well as a form of artistic expression. For Leopold Strobl, photography in public media is the starting point of his artistic work. (German)
4:30 p.m.
Ceremony (Segensfeier) with Probst Anton Wolfgang Höslinger from the Klosterneuburg Abbey with musical accompaniment in the former chapel of the house.
Originally designed by Oswald Tschirtner in 2001, this room was completed this year on the initiative of the gugging friends association by Johann Feilacher with works by the artist Hans Langner alias “Birdman”.

Performance “I could have been you”
A performance developed from 2015 to 2019 by the artist Reinhold Zisser, who lives in Vienna and Lower Austria.
As part of this performance, two images are created that appear identical at first glance. A closer look reveals that every detail of the artwork is unique. The performance also raises the question of the roles that the artist and art curator slip into. (No language requirements)
