Secession Podcast: Members is a series of conversations featuring members of the Secession. This episode is a conversation between the member Thomas Feuerstein and the artist Lucie Strecker. It was recorded on February 17, 2024.
Thomas Feuerstein is a visual artist. His oeuvre encompasses sprawling installations, process-based sculptures, drawings, audio plays, and biological and internet art. Central concerns include the conjunction of linguistic, visual, and material elements, the uncovering of latent superimpositions of fact and fiction, and the nexus between art and science. Feuerstein’s method of “conceptual narration” interweaves art, architecture, philosophy, literature, and philosophy with economics, politics, and technology. Since the mid-1990s, he has harnessed biotechnologies and artificial neuronal networks to create projects that examine the interplay between individuality and sociality, an aesthetics of entropy, and a cybernetic “daimonology” of cultural processes.
Lucie Strecker’s trans-media practice investigates experimental systems in art and the sciences, exploring a post-anthropocentric conception of performativity. Her work has been shown at festivals and galleries and in museums. She is a fellow at the Berlin University of the Arts and a founding member of the Applied Performance Lab at the University of Applied Arts in Vienna, where she has led artistic research projects since 2016 and taught performance art in the Art and Communication Practices division since 2020.

Imran Perrettatears of the fatherland8.3. – 9.6.2024
Imran Perretta’s transdisciplinary practice spans moving image, sound, composition, performance art, and poetry. His works examine questions around power, state surveillance, alterity, neo-coloniality, and the process of identity formation in young people of Muslim heritage in Western countries in the post-9/11 era. His approach to these concerns is informed by his own experience: as a British citizen with Muslim roots, he is familiar with the challenges his works grapple with. More

SLIMECurated by Joshua Simon16.2. – 30.6.2024
SLIME is a unique hybrid on-line and on-site project about our hybrid realities. Taking place at the Secession as an on-site event and as an on-line program, it includes commissioned and historic artworks, talks and performances, screenings and workshops (including one for making actual slime). Taking its name from the children’s toy—a metastable plasma-like substance that has both unique material and tactile features and a constant presence online through tutorials and documentation of people playing with it—SLIME tackles the social, cultural, political, and sensory operations of digital hybridity.

Secession Podcast: Members is a series of conversations featuring members of the Secession. This episode is a conversation between the member Marianne in conversation with the members Christine and Irene Hohenbüchler. It was recorded on December 11, 2023.
Marianne Maderna (b. 1944) lives and works in Vienna and Lower Austria. Her interdisciplinary installations, environments, and performances grapple with socially relevant concerns that address the human condition and devise novel ways to frame patterns of human behavior and hierarchical systems. Her work has been featured in exhibitions including RADICAL BUSTS, Arkadenhof, University of Vienna (2015); HUMANIMALS, Zeitkunst NÖ, Dominikanerkirche Krems (2013); Das erste Haus, Architekturzentrum Wien, Vienna (1996); Raum und Ausgang, Secession, Vienna (1990–91); and Maderna, Secession, Vienna (1982). She was awarded the Grand Decoration of Honor for Services to the State of Lower Austria in 2018; the Prize of the City of Vienna for Sculpture in 1996; and the Honorary Award for Visual Arts of the State of Lower Austria in 1991.
Christine and Irene Hohenbüchler live in Eichgraben near Vienna. They have been partners in life and art since 1990; the idea of “multiple authorship” plays a central role in their work. In the 1990s, they primarily worked with socially marginalized groups: prisoners, people with mental illnesses, and individuals with additional needs. Their creative practice subsequently shifted toward collaborations with children and school and university students. In addition to these group works, they have made art engaging with its historical, social, and political context and produced participatory projects that underscore the visitors’ or users’ active involvement in creative processes. Large-format drawings have flanked their work throughout the years. Christine has been professor of drawing and visual languages at the Institute of Art and Design in TU Wien’s Faculty of Architecture and Planning since 2002. Irene has led the class in cooperative strategies at the University of Fine Arts Münster since 2011.

Secession Podcast: Artists is a series of conversations featuring artists exhibiting at the Secession. This episode is a conversation between the Agency of Singular Investigations (Anna Titova and Stanislav Shuripa) and the curator Annette Südbeck. It was recorded on December 15, 2023 in the context of the exhibition:
Agency of Singular InvestigationsOn New Thinking And Other Forgotten Dreams1.12.2023 – 25.2.2024
Anna Titova and Stanislav Shuripa founded Agency of Singular Investigations (ASI) in 2014 to take a stand on the dramatic changes in Russia’s political reality and cultural atmosphere and to respond to the advent of the postfactual age by thinking about alternative ways of harnessing images and means of communication for the construction of identities and worldviews.
At the Secession, ASI present the new installation On New Thinking and Other Forgotten Dreams. It is the first part of their wide-ranging research project The Park of Mind Revolutions, which investigates the history of subjectivity and the forms and functions of Russia’s self-image in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Organized as a dialogue between the worker Grigoriy Zamzin and a pickle about the meaning of Russia’s most recent history, the installation comprises four sculptures, a sprawling wall diagram, and a blue carpet. Taking inspiration from the interwar literature of magical realism, the artists employ carefully selected fantastic elements, irrational events, and metaphors to frame a critical perspective on the complexity of their country’s historical evolution. Playing with hybrid dimensions of reality and collisions between historical forces, they expose the energies that shape the psychological, technological, and social system. More
Dr. Annette Südbeck is managing director and curator at the Secession. She studied Fine Arts, German Studies and Arts in Braunschweig.

Charlie ProdgerThe Offering Formula1.12.2023 – 25.2.2024
Charlie Prodger (b.1974) is a Scottish artist working with moving image, photography, sculpture and drawing. She won the 2018 Turner Prize and represented Scotland at the 2019 Venice Biennale. She is currently a 2023–24 Fellow at the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study, Harvard University.
Broadly, Prodger’s work orbits histories - from the weight of deep geological time to more contingent forms of narrative such as anecdote and oral history. Through the prism of queer subjectivity, her work explores intertwined relations between the body, landscape, language, technology and time. More

Mai LingNOT YOUR ORNAMENT15.9. – 12.11.2023
Founded in Vienna in 2019, Mai Ling is an artists’ collective and association dedicated to facilitating dialogues on experiences of racism, sexism, homophobia, and any kind of prejudgment, particularly against Asian FLINT* (women, lesbian, inter, non-binary, and trans). Rooted in solidarity against patriarchal and racial discrimination, the group offers a space and growing network to give voice to the many individuals affected by such discrimination and foster new forms of collaboration. As an anonymous collective and a multi-hybrid figure, with everyone identifying as “Mai Ling,” the group employs a variety of artistic and discursive formats such as performances, texts, videos, sound, installations, talk series, interventions, and protests.

Secession Podcast: Artists is a series of conversations featuring artists exhibiting at the Secession. This episode is a conversation between the artist Mykola Ridnyi and the board member and artist Anna Witt. It was recorded on September 15, 2023 in the context of the exhibition:
Mykola Ridnyi15.9. – 12.11.2023
Mykola Ridnyi’s generation of Ukrainians grew up in a climate of increasing orientation toward the West and the European Union. This emancipation from Russia found expression in the 2004 Orange Revolution and was defended in the Euromaidan events of 2013–14. It was a process that went hand in hand with the emergence of a confident Ukrainian arts scene, among whose leading exponents Ridnyi ranks. Long before graduating from the Kharkiv State Academy of Design and Arts in 2008, he was instrumental to the formation of a politically active arts scene, both as an artist in his own right and as a curator and author. He was a founding member of the art collective SOSka, whose SOSka gallery-lab, an artist-run space that existed from 2005 until 2012, was a key contribution to the local artistic infrastructure. Ridnyi’s curatorial project Armed and Dangerous (2017–2021) prompted him to begin developing a platform for collaborations between Ukrainian moving-image artists and filmmakers. In 2022–23, he curated several Ukrainian film and video art screening programs at DAAD-Galerie, Berlin; MAXXI, Rome; Museum Folkwang, Essen; and the National Gallery, Sofia. More
Anna Witt, born in Germany in 1981, lives and works in Vienna and Berlin. Her artistic practice is performative, participatory, and political. She creates situations that reflect interpersonal relationships and power structures as well as conventions of speaking and acting. Her work has been shown at the SEMA Seoul Museum of Art; the Secession, Vienna; the 1st Vienna Biennale at MAK; the Gallery of Contemporary Art Leipzig; Museum Ludwig, Cologne; the Austrian Cultural Forum in New York; Kunstmuseum Bern; and the MOCA Museum of Contemporary Art Taipei, among others, and she has had solo exhibitions at Museum Belvedere 21 Contemporary, Vienna; Kunst Halle Sankt Gallen, and Gallery Tanja Wagner, Berlin, at Marabouparken konsthall, Stockholm and Stacion—Center for Contemporary Art, Prishtina, Kosovo. She took part in Aichi Triennial in 2019 and 2013; the Lux/ICA Biennial of Moving Images, London; the 6th Berlin Biennale of Contemporary Art, and Manifesta 7 in northern Italy, and is the winner of the Outstanding Artist Award of the Austrian Federal Ministry of the Arts, Culture, the Civil Service and Sport (2020), the Otto Mauer Prize (2018), the Art Prize ‘Future of Europe’ (2015), the BC21 Art Award (2013), and the Art Prize of the Columbus Art Foundation (2008).

Secession Podcast: Artists is a series of conversations featuring artists exhibiting at the Secession. This episode is a conversation between the artist Chen Chieh-jen and the curator Meiya Cheng and the curator Jeanette Pacher. It was conducted in Mandarin and recorded on June 30, 2023 in the context of the exhibition:
Chen Chieh-jenWorn Away30.6. – 3.9.2023
A long-time denizen of Taiwan’s art world, Chen Chieh-jen’s work from the 1980s to the present has been exhibited internationally. To the local scene, he became renowned for Dysfunction No. 3, an interventionist performance on Taipei’s streets in the early 1980s. Wandering along dressed as hooded inmates, Chen and his contemporaries rejoinded government control through civil disobedience, forging a public sphere during times of oppression: From 1949 to 1987, the country was subjected to martial law, an emergency state governance banning free speech and public assembly. Distancing Taiwan from the neighboring People’s Republic of China, the innately anti-communist martial law coerced power through a one-party system, with the military and secret police assuming control. In Chen’s multifaceted work, the Japanese rule over Taiwan in the first half of the 20th century, the country’s kinship with the US during the Cold War, and its present-day neoliberalization feature as periodic points of departure. More
Meiya Cheng is a curator from Taipei. Before co-founding the Taipei Contemporary Art Center (TCAC), an experimental art association and independent art space in 2010, she worked as a curator at the Museum of Contemporary Art, MoCA, Taipei. As chair of the TCAC association from 2012 to 2014, she initiated exhibitions, forums, residencies and publications with contributions of Asian art workers that were presented in Taipei, New York, and Southeast Asia. She co-curated Trading Futures with Pauline Yao at Taipei Contemporary Art Center (2012), the 6th Queens International with Hitomi Iwasaki at Queens Museum, New York (2013), and The Great Ephemeral with the New Museum team at the New Museum, New York (2015). Her research on Southeast Asian art was presented in the exhibition Public Spirits at the Center for Contemporary Art Ujazdów Castle, Warsaw (2016).

Florentina Pakosta (b. 1933) is an Austrian artist and pioneer of the feminist avant-garde. Initially active as an artist working with drawing, a socio-critical realism prevailed at first, successively leading through the reduction of forms to her characteristic, abstract-geometric tricolour paintings. From 1952 to 1960 she studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague and Vienna. In 1971 she became a member of the Secession and from 1975 to 1983 she was its first female board member. In 1978 she curated the exhibition Secessionistinnen. Since 1975, the artist has published numerous short stories and art-theoretical texts. Her works are represented in renowned collections and museums, including the Albertina and the Museum der Moderne Salzburg. In 2023 she received the Austrian Art Prize.
Jürgen Tabor has been curator of the Generali Foundation Collection – Permanent Loan to the Museum der Moderne Salzburg since July 2019. He studied art history as well as English and American studies at the University of Innsbruck. Until 2017 he was curator, deputy and interim director of TAXISPALAIS, Kunsthalle Tirol, then curator of the Klocker Foundation and the Biennale Innsbruck International. As a freelance curator he realized projects in Bolzano, Madrid, Vienna, Budapest and Dornbirn, among others. He is the author of numerous texts on 20th century and contemporary art and has taught at the universities of Innsbruck and Graz.
Melissa Lumbroso (b. 1980 in Paris) is assistant curator at the Albertina in Vienna, where she has collaborated on several group exhibitions, e.g. Drawing Now: 2015, as well as on large-scale exhibitions dedicated to Keith Haring, Florentina Pakosta, Hermann Nitsch, Xenia Hausner, Ai Weiwei and Yoshitomo Nara. She established “Kunst@IHS” in 2017, a series of exhibitions with contemporary artists at the Institute for Advanced Studies in Vienna. Since 2020, Lumbroso has been developing an online catalogue raisonné with over 3,000 drawings and paintings by Florentina Pakosta with the launch planned for the fall of 2023.

Lazar Lyutakov1 Million Random Numbers30.6. – 3.9.2023
Many of Lazar Lyutakov’s works appropriate ordinary articles of our modern mass culture and simple industrial products, presenting them in a way that probes their meanings and ambiguities. He carefully selects the objects and adapts and enhances them with targeted interventions in an effort to analyze contemporary conditions of production and forms of consumption, flows of capital and commodities, and aesthetic mass phenomena and to reflect on values, productivity, quality, and utility in a post-capitalist industrialized world.

Secession Podcast: Artists is a series of conversations featuring artists exhibiting at the Secession. This episode is a conversation between the artist Delaine Le Bas and the curator Bettina Spörr. It was recorded on June 26, 2023 in the context of the exhibition:
Delaine Le BasIncipit Vita Nova. Here Begins The New Life/A New Life Is Beginning30.6. – 3.9.2023
Delaine Le Bas works in a transdisciplinary way: she combines visual, performative and literary practices to create an artistic oeuvre that encompasses all areas of life. In her works she deals with many facets, political as well as private and emotional, which involve belonging to the Rom*nja people, their history and rich cultural heritage. On the one hand, she uses "classical" forms and techniques, especially textile techniques such as embroidery and appliqué, which, in conjunction with large-flowered fabrics and fantastic imagery, are immediately associated with clichés and stereotypes. At the same time, Le Bas subverts her own decorative aesthetic by openly exploring her struggles, thus defying stereotypical limitations. More

Secession Podcast: Artists is a series of conversations featuring artists exhibiting at the Secession. This episode is a conversation between the artist Vivian Suter and the curator Jeanette Pacher. It was recorded on May 4, 2023 in the context of the exhibition:
Vivian SuterA Stone in the Lake28.4. – 18.6.2023
The Secession’s iconic light-filled main gallery, which opens onto a small park behind the building, would appear to be the ideal setting for a presentation of the painter Vivian Suter’s oeuvre
The Argentinean-Swiss artist has lived on a former coffee plantation in Panajachel on the shore of Guatemala’s volcano-ringed Lago de Atitlán since the early 1980s, at a far remove from the art world, which for years paid her little attention. More recently, however, she has garnered considerable acclaim and her work has been shown around the world, including, most prominently, at documenta 14 in Athens and Kassel (2017). More
Jeanette Pacher is a curator at the Secession and lecturer at the University of Applied Arts Vienna / Site-Specific Art department. She was part of the editorial team of Ö1 Kunstradio and began working in the curatorial field at Kunsthalle Wien.

Secession Podcast: Artists is a series of conversations featuring artists exhibiting at the Secession. This episode is a conversation between the Indigenous media group Karrabing Film Collective (represented by Cecilia Lewis, Elizabeth Povinelli and Akaydia Lee), the curator Bettina Spörr. It was recorded on April 27, 2023 in the context of the exhibition:
Karrabing Film CollectiveThey pretending not to see us...28.4. – 18.6.2023
The Karrabing Film Collective is an intergenerational grassroots media group of around thirty Indigenous filmmakers and Elizabeth Povinelli, who has known and worked with Karrabing members and their parents and grandparents for almost forty years. Karrabing lands stretch along the coast from across the Darwin harbor to Anson Bay, Northern Territory. Karrabing’s films reflect their multidimensional relationships with each other, their land, their ancestors, and human and more-than-human life. They tell stories of their fraught relations with the Australian government, the lingering effects of white settler capitalism, repression by the police and authorities, and white Australians’ failure to recognize Indigenous ways of life.

Bettina Spörr is a curator at the Secession since 2008. Previously she was assistant curator and exhibition coordinator at the Generali Foundation Vienna.
