curated by_vienna is a programme that
commissions collaborative projects between Vienna's leading contemporary
art galleries and internationally renowned curators. Now in its fourth
year, curated by_vienna 2012 will be held in 22 galleries throughout the
city, opening on 20 September and running until 25 October.
Under the title art or life: aesthetics and biopolitics, this
year's project, conceived by Eva Maria Stadler in cooperation with the
galleries, explores the interconnections between work, economy, knowledge,
and politics. 25 curators have been invited to develop special exhibitions
for the participating galleries.
Experienced as a whole, curated
by_vienna 2012: art or life: aesthetics and biopolitics will enable
audiences to chart intersections, connections, and diversions across the
exhibitions and the sociopolitical geography they encompass—presented
in Vienna.
