The art project deals with an institutional and three-dimensional change, which will arise during the preparation and installation of the exhibition. The project is carried out in Prague in the Austrian Cultural Centre (Zentrum, 14.1. – 22.2. 2011) and in Vienna in the Czech Centre (Centrum, 19.1. – 3.3. 2011). Dominik Lang, Marcus Geiger and Martin Mazanec worked on the exhibitions. Zentrum
Marcus Geiger (*1957, Muri/Switzerland) lives in Vienna. He belongs to a generation of European artists who graduated in the late seventies, went through a lesson of action art, performances and changed the new painting of the eighties into “neo-geo”. Typical for Geiger is his relation to space, into which he intervenes to create new situatons and to disturbs its common use. He oscillates among three-dimensional sculpture, installation and architecture all the time. He likes settling down in already marked territory, he takes advantage of all outer circumstances and puts them into his work and in a way thus rehabilitates everydayness and ordinariness.
