In her film installations, Isa Rosenberger weaves traces of history - forgotten or marginalised, often feminist and Jewish women's history - into multi-perspectival historiographies in which gaps and voids are constitutive. In the film realisation, Rosenberger uses montage: linguistic and visual, documentary and fictional narrative levels switch, fragment and join up again, always tied in with current issues and discourses.Taking this into account, the exhibition in Kunsthaus Graz is oriented towards the idea of the 'stage' as a performative space, as a space of memory and experience that should be activated. Shadows, Gaps, Voids is Isa Rosenberger's most comprehensive show to date and features six older works and a new piece, a co-production with Stiftung Bauhaus Dessau.

LOVING OTHERS - Models of collaboration is appearing on the occasion of the same-named exhibition at the Künstlerhaus Wien. The exhibition-curated by Christian Helbock und Dietmar Schwärzler-aims to help make artist groups and their different collaborative models and forms of social bonding and solidarity be productive, as well as to tell stories of constructive failure. The exhibition sees itself as an experimental field for observing and comparing collectives, artist groups, and even temporary collaborations in a differentiated and engaging way.The publication, which is not intended as an exhibition catalogue, accompanies the show. It collects and presents discursive texts on the topic, additional material, further contributions by artists, and accompanying interviews. The publication is an independent, discursive collection of material and provides in-depth information on various forms of collaboration, individual groups or artistic practices for an interested audience.

Das Kunsthaus Graz ist heute fester Bestandteil der städtebaulichen Identität der zweitgrößten Stadt Österreichs. Auch wenn dieser 2003 gelandete "Friendly Alien" der Architekten Peter Cook und Colin Fournier inzwischen zu einem vertrauten Objekt geworden ist, sind die Perspektiven auf das Gebäude dem Wandel der Zeit unterworfen. Das Buch schaut zurück auf fast 20 Jahre seit seiner Entstehung, entfaltet einen kaleidoskopischen Blick und fokussiert vor allem die Nutzung des Kunsthauses. In lokaler sowie globaler Hinsicht wird das Kunsthaus Graz kontextualisiert und zu seinen Nutzer*innen in Beziehung gesetzt. Mit Textbeiträgen von Barbara Steiner, Sophia Walk, Pablo von Frankenberg, Anselm Wagner, Katia Huemer, Niels Jonkhans, Elisabeth Schlögl, Peter Cook und Colin Fournier und fotografischen Beiträgen von Arthur Zalewski und Martin Grabner
