AiR Hungary 2011-2012

ARTIST IN RESIDENCE HUNGARY 2011–2012
Krinzinger Projekte presents the second group show with participants of the Artist in Residence Programs in Petömihályfa, Hungary. The preparation for this program began in the fall of 2009 and in the springtime of 2010 the first of the artists were settling themselves in the quiet and remote studio to concentrate and finish their artwork. In 2010 the focus was solely on Austrian and Hungarian artists, whereas in 2011 the show has been expanded to include international artists from Germany, Bulgaria and France. The exhibition of the artists, who have participated in the AiR-Program from the period of 2011 and 2012, will be shown. There will be an exciting overview of the artistic production ranging from drawings, videos, photographs, objects and installations. The AiR studio is situated in an idyllic countryside of western Hungary. Far away from the hustle and bustle of city life, the studio offers a perfect place for artists to retreat where they can throw themselves into their artwork. In a natural environment, the rhythm of the Residence lifestyle is minimalistic. The studios of the Galerie Krinzinger in Petömihályfa, is a place where young European artists can meet. The cultural as well as the artistic cooperation of the Hungarian and Austrian artist are from great value. The sponsorships and stimulation for the exchange of international contemporary artists lays in the focus, however, the networking of the cultural community is also an important aspect. This is why regular visits to the studios are organized, where individual positions are presented.
