From the ‘Location Nature’ Series 24 12.12.2019 12.12.2019 Natural History Museum /Education 3 Jun Yang The Artist, the Work, the Exhibition Opening: 14.02.2019, 7.30 pm Duration: 15.02.–19.05.2019 Curated by Barbara Steiner In cooperation with Art Sonje Center, Seoul, and Neue Galerie Graz The solo exhibition by Jun Yang is dedicated to fundamental questions of artistic work: what significance do original works, unique pieces, series and reproductions have in art today? How is artistic practice defined when exchanged with others? At the beginning of 2018, The Monograph Project by Jun Yang was published, a monograph totalling six volumes about the artist and his work, which – in a sort of paradoxical reversal – challenges monographic conventions and biography. For the format, cover and even spelling of the artist’s name changes from volume to volume. This evokes various artists, which is precisely what interests Yang: to break the narrative of authentic, brilliant creators – a narrative that has proven particularly well-suited to the branding of an artist and his/her work. The solo exhibition at the Kunsthaus Graz links up to this. The exhibition, like the monograph, becomes itself the subject of artistic investigation. Besides the presentation of Yang’s works, the exhibition reflects authorship, constructions of identity and allocations of roles. In this, cooperation with others plays a special role. Alongside this, from February 15th, 2019, the Neue Galerie Graz addresses issues of the reproducibility of art, the significance of the original work, the one-off work and reproduction, in the exhibition titled Too Much Is Not Enough! With works by Lee Kit, Paul McCarthy/Mike Kellcey, Michikazu Matsune, Yuki Okumura, Koki Tanaka, Bruce Yonemoto and Maja Vukoje. 4 Johann Lurf Earth Series with Laura Wagner and Cavalcade Opening: 12.03.2019, 7 pm Duration: 13.03.–22.04.2019 Curated by Katrin Bucher Trantow In cooperation with Diagonale’19 Once again, in 2019, the Kunsthaus Graz is collaborating with the Diagonale, showing an exhibition of Johann Lurf in the Space03. In the previous year he was awarded the Diagonale Prize for Innovative Cinema of the City of Graz, and is designing the trailer for Diagonale’19. Lurf’s works always mean filmic exploration – exploration that will now continue at the Diagonale’19, too. The exhibition in the Kunsthaus is created in collaboration with the artist Laura Wagner. 5 Connected. Peter Kogler with … George Antheil with Friedrich Kiesler with Hedy Lamarr with Fernand Léger with museum in progress with Otto Neurath with Charlotte Perriand with Franz Pomassl with Winfried Ritsch with Franz West … Opening: 27.06.2019, 7 pm Duration: 28.06.–20.10.2019 Curated by Katrin Bucher Trantow The exhibition brings together works from the dawn of the century with contemporary works. In a new, immersive work by Peter Kogler, iconic items on loan and archival material from Fernand Léger and Charlotte Perriand, together with the compositions of George Antheil und Franz Pomassl, form a tangible cosmos of architectural and medial space that is at once reproducible, programmed and mysterious. At the centre of the exhibition lies the reflection of the ground-breaking, revolutionary Ballet Mécanique by Fernand Léger and George Antheil. This work, which resonates to the present day, was conceived in the early 1920s as the first Surrealist-Dadaist link between film montage and mechanised music, with the artists Fernand Léger as visual composer, Dudley Murphy as cameraman, and George Antheil as music composer. Its goal was, in the words of Antheil, ‘to make clear to the (present) age both the beauty and danger of its unconscious mechanical philosophy and aesthetic.’ The effect of the piece is hypnotic: the most rapid, mechanically precise rhythms alternate between attacks on the instrument’s keys and terrifying silence. 6 Arts Crafts Opening: 14.11.2019, 7 pm Duration: 15.11.2019–16.02.2020 Curated by Barbara Steiner In the last few years, interest on the part of contemporary artists in crafting processes, in experimenting with material and techniques has grown noticeably. The way these artists handle pre-modern, traditional and local knowledge does not isolate, rather it opens up – to other cultures, to modern and contemporary art, to current discourses and digital developments. Culture is understood as a flow of varied, inter-related influences and elements. The significance of craftsmanship as an essential component of cultural identity, and above all the potential of craftwork traditions to create community, is combined with social and economic conditions in a globalised world. With this approach, the artists also challenge – as a kind of side-effect – the ways in which the homeland, people, and folkloristic art and tradition are instrumentalised for political purposes. The works show the extent to which local identification and global developments have long since slid into one another. Moreover, they ask how, given the present economic circumstances, a ‘crafted’ relationship between workers and the objects they work can be conceived and put into practice. This approach not only defies cultural boundaries, it also links up the analogue and digital worlds. With works by Azra Akšamija, Plamen Dejanoff, Olaf Holzapfel, Jorge Pardo, Slavs and Tatars, Haegue Yang and Johannes Schweiger. 7 Too Much Is Not Enough! The “Artelier Collection” Donation Opening: 14.02.2019, 6 pm Duration: 15.02.–25.08.2019 Curated by Friedrich Tietjen In 1985, at the Graz-based company Schilcher & Sohn KG, an in-house production line was created in the relevant department for screen printing, and the working of wood, metal and synthetics.
