The initiative of several leading German and Austrian cultural institutions has culminated in a major international show of contemporary art. Entitled Zeitwenden, the exhibition can be visited at Künstlerhaus and Museum Moderner Kunst Stiftung Ludwig in Vienna until October 1, which will follow the show in Bonn’s Kunstmuseum. According to chief curator Lóránd Hegyi the exhibition attempts to indicate what art in the near future will look like and includes works by over 90 artists from five continents. The exhibition has been realized in two separate parts. While Ludwig’s 20er Haus presents installations, videos and photographs by the stars of the global art scene ranging from Matthew Barney, Wim Delvoy, Carsten Höller, Tracey Moffatt, Pipilotti Rist to Rosemarie Trockel, the Künstlerhaus has mainly collected paintings and sculptures by artists of the older generation: Louise Bourgeois, Tonny Cragg and Franz West; as well as artists from the periphery: Cai Guo Qiang, Ays Erkmen and Bodys Isek Kingelez.

Our criteria did not…

Nick Land was a British philosopher but is no longer, though he is not dead. The almost neurotic fervor with which he scratched at the scars of reality has seduced more than a few promising academics onto the path of art that offends in its originality. The texts that he has left behind are reliably revolting and boring, and impel us to castrate their categorization as “mere” literature.

An American poet was invited to the White House in order to read his controversial plagiarized poetry. All tricked out and ready to do it his way, he comes to the “scandalous” realization that nothing bothers anyone anymore, and instead of banging your head against the wall it is better to build you own walls or at least little fences.
