    In der globalen Gesellschaft stellt Erdöl eine der wichtigsten Ressourcen der Moderne dar. Im Angesicht der rasch fortschreitenden Erhitzung unseres Planeten steht uns eine radikale Transformation in ein postfossiles Zeitalter bevor. Für einen erfolgreichen Übergang in eine nachhaltige Zukunft ist das Verständnis unserer heutigen Kultur, die durch und durch vom Erdöl
    geformt wird, eine wichtige Grundlage.

    Oil constitutes one of the most important resources of the modern age in our global society.
    In light of increasing planetary warming, we are on the brink of a radical transformation into a post-fossil era.
    For a successful transition towards a sustainable future, understanding our present day culture in terms of its entanglements with the oil industry is a prerequisite.
    The exhibition Reflecting Oil, part of the eponymous artistic research project led by artist Ernst Logar,
    intensively explores this substance in connection with various concepts and phenomena of our petromodernity.

    The exhibition Archival Sites of Speculation: Storying the Silence seeks to contribute to critical discussions on the archive as a space of artistic research and the experimental methods deployed in examining the convergent and divergent histories. It creates an experimental space within which methodologies of proximity and engagement with archives can be tested and divulged.

    The film program Archival Sites of Speculation brings together artists, who draw on the archive as an object of artistic inquiry rather than merely a site of research and negotiate the constitutive limits of the archive. They developed methodologies of proximity and engagement with archives in order to reflect on colonial continuities. The films make visible what is absent from documentation and refer to the gaps in the transmission of memory, testimony or kept historical material. The artists apply a specific embodied practice as a way of closing the distance between one’s own body to the body of the archive through dance, touch, text, juxtaposition, cuts, collage or reading. With these methods, historical and archival research is combined with a “critical fabulation” to make productive sense of gaps and silences within an archive.

    April 2023

    The project Anonymity and Absence: Archival Sites of Speculation is an experimental space within which methodologies of proximity and engagement with archives can be tested and divulged. The test sites are the Archives of the Austrian Association of Women Artists (VBKÖ) and the Archive of the University of Applied Arts Vienna (Angewandte Archive). This project seeks to contribute to critical discussions on the archive as a space of artistic research and the experimental methods deployed in examining the convergent and divergent histories of the Angewandte Archive and the VBKÖ Archive.

  • Re-Enacting Tableaus

    Re-Enacting Tableaus

    Artistic research project

    PhD project by Micha Payer
    Tutor: Paul Petritsch
    Oct 01, 2019 – Jun 30, 2022

    November 2019

    In my research project I want to examine Tableaus as historical precursors for the structure of knowledge in contemporary scientific visual aids of all disciplines as well as in displays – summarized in images handling complexity in the Age of “Google“ and “Wikipedia“.  The Tableau enables a synoptical visual experience; it is a place of simultaneity –  a surface, that is organizing and structuring information aesthetically.
