Description: What does art do with life and what does life do with art? Merging together art and life was one of the great aims of the avant-garde in the 20th century. Technical and social revolutions were intended to lead to an all-round regenerated life, and this preferably through art. Re-examining the connections between work, economy, knowledge and politics has been the subject of numerous biopolitical approaches in recent years. This publication comprises texts by Beatrice von Bismarck, Isolde Charim and Eva Maria Stadler, as well as contributions by 22 international curators who have designed exhibitions on the subject in Vienna galleries. 0Exhibition: Several galleries in Vienna, Austria (20.9.-25.10.2012).0.
Notes: "This publication accompanies the gallery project curated by _vienna 2012, which is coordinated band supported by departure, the City of Vienna's creative industries agency"--T.p. verso.
