"Jim Dine ranks alongside figures such as Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, and Wayne Thibaud as one of the celebrated stars of American Pop Art. The self-portraits, which Dine began painting in the 1950s, serve to catalyze an independent, intense, and surprising dialog with the artist and his output. And Dine's diverse experiments with a wide range of techniques and materials address themes including youth and old age, intimacy and extrove ..."
"Unlike almost any other contemporary German artist, Anselm Kiefer (born 1945) has rendered the horrors of recent history and created profound works of art with mythological, religious and philosophical themes, in subtle layers that alternately cover as well as uncover one another--that contain the knowledge of the inevitable transformation and dissolution of all matter, at once monumental and material-related. These fundamental elements ..."
"Spatial Dispositions features Italian artist Aldo Giannotti’s (born 1977) latest intervention at the Albertina: conceptual drawings that examine the museum’s various collections, employees and visitors in a mode both performative and installational. Gionnotti breaks with tradition, taking on the spatial, architectural, historical and social in this series."
"Die zweisprachige Monografie dokumentiert erstmals in vollem Umfang ihr bislang noch weitgehend unbekanntes künstlerisches Werk, in dem sie für die Erfahrungen der nationalsozialistischen Zerstörung und des Exils einen eigenständigen Ausdruck findet. Die Publikation umfasst auch Texte von Freunden und zwei wissenschaftliche Beiträge, die Michies weitreichende Beziehungen zur österreichischen Emigration in London ebenso thematisieren wie ..."
"An Austrian artist known for her painted self-portraits and theory of body awareness, Maria Lassnig (1919–2014) was the first female artist to win the Grand Austrian State Prize in 1988. As part of the Hundsgruppe, or “Dog Pack,” in the 1950s, she was influenced by abstract expressionism and action painting, as well as surrealist artists such as André Breton, who she met on a trip to Paris. But despite these influences, she was often ah ..."
"Although Austrian art stood in the international limelight during the last two decades before the First World War and took on renewed significance after 1945, the period between the wars has remained largely unknown - and with it the history of the drawing in Austria.The period which ended with Austria's political eradication and the inner and outward emigration of its artists witnessed a great variety of tendencies and the appearance o ..."

"Es sind tiefgreifende Gefühle, die im Zentrum ihres faszinierenden und autonomen Schaffens stehen. Das Sichtbarmachen von körperlichen Empfindungen und das Nachspüren der Körperwahrnehmung bilden den Mittelpunkt ihrer Body-Awareness-Arbeiten. Humorvoll und ernst, sehnsuchtsvoll und gnadenlos bannt die Künstlerin ihre Eindrücke auf Papier. Die gefühlte Körperwelt trifft sich dialogisch mit der sichtbaren Außenwelt, mit der Natur oder in ..."
"Loneliness, jealousy, love, and death. There is hardly another artist who explored the basic experiences of human life and his own personal angst so forcefully and in such unsettling images as the Norwegian painter and graphic artist Edvard Munch. Munch's depictions of the crisis of the individual positioned his work as representative of modern consciousness, and the form he used to express this inner drama set him as a precursor and fo ..."
"... flowering in a career cut short at the age of twenty -eight: Egon Schiele. His
burning, total subjectivity marks the cleanest break of all with the aestheticism of
the past. It is the source of an art of expression specific to Vienna and clearly
distinct ..."
"The popular Austrian artist Erwin Wurm (born 1954) established himself years ago on the international art scene with his "One Minute Sculptures"--photographs of people, often contorted, in staged, absurdist situations--and his comical sculptures that distort familiar objects, such as the "Fat Car." In 2011, his "Narrow House," a miniature version of his parents' house in Austria, squeezed down to a sixth of its normal size and a width o ..."

"Over the course of a half-century, Sturtevant (1924-2014) developed what is perhaps the most radical oeuvre of her generation. Concerned more with changing mental attitudes than with the reception of her art, she provoked the art world and the individual spectator by repeating the original works of contemporary artists. Astonishingly soon after the "originals" were made, she used them as source and catalyst, her intention being to, as s ..."
