As in the past two years, we would like to take a closer look at and discuss individual artworks with you while trying out different perspectives. Although we can’t offer tours to artworks at various locations in Graz this year, we do invite you to join us for lively conversations at the large shared table via Zoom.

Ahmet Öğüt’s new documentary film-essay for Paranoia TV takes its viewers on a journey through the more recent history of art. It tells about how long before the global pandemic ever broke out, artists were making artworks at home and addressing their domestic surroundings. Kitchens and sleeping areas become politically loaded terrain.
