To mark the project’s “opening” the Camera Austria exhibition space will be simultaneously opened to the public and temporarily abandoned. The project team and their guests will set out for the Eggenberg district as part of a “relay race” and open an Echo Space there that will connect the institution of Camera Austria with local initiatives and enter into a dialogue with them. These initiatives, which often escape public attention but are now more important (and endangered) than ever, shape everyday culture and the good life in the neighborhood. We’ll explore their interaction with the city and inquire into their activities, interests, and working conditions.
Until now, access to the Camera Austria exhibition space has been limited to the entrance and foyer of the Kunsthaus Graz. The artists Nicole Six & Paul Petritsch have developed a concept that includes an external staircase leading directly from the street into the exhibition room, offering visitors access, free of charge, to a space in the city that can be occupied by everyone, a consumption-free zone, a common room for reading, having lunch, or even for Yoga . . .
This room provides the framework for an exhibition format that is both open and flexible. The institution (Camera Austria) and the city (exemplified by the Eggenberg district) function as equal and permeable work and archive spaces. The result is a large-scale (urban) field of action and intervention in which the two sites connect, communicate, and enter into a fruitful exchange.
