HIDDEN PASSENGERS IN CONTEMPORARY ART

Exhibition at MONTEHERMOSO, Vitoria-Gasteiz, Spain

January 22 – May 30

Curated by Elke Krystufek

With a rather personal video work BROT & ROSEN (2009) Michael Häfner (gastroenterologist) and Christina Lammer are involved in the group exhibition STOWAWAYS at MONTEHERMOSO in Vitoria-Gasteiz (Spain). The viewer of the video travels literally through the stomach of the artist and sociologist. The Austrian artist Elke Krystufek curated the exhibition.

Elke Krystufek: “Stowaways is about the disorder in art and a kind of honesty of the failed picture of the missing links behind a pretended shinier surface or ambition. Stowaways is meant as an extension to show a glimpse of what you do not see when you go into an art exhibition.”
