lin. Symposium IV / Kunst & Ökologie
For the summer symposium, the grounds of Symposion Lindabrunn will become a stage on which visual art, literature, performance and science will enter into a dialog.
Over a period of two weeks, invited artists, performers and scientists will address the topic of networking and integrating art and ecology in a structured society. A stage play open to the public will be presented from July 16 to 17 and will be open to discussion. The summer symposium is curated by Elisabeth Falkinger in close cooperation with the Autorinnen*Stammtisch Wien.
“Ecology is not the science ‘out there’, but a personal experience.”
“The body is not metaphorical, but truly a part of the surrounding land. The land is the body. When people are deprived of the land, they are not only deprived of their physical foundation, but of their body.”
Margaret Kemarre Turner | Artist and Aborigine

Landschaftsteppich
Jennifer Fischer
A guided tour of the species-rich dry grassland of the sculpture park and how the biodiversity at the symposium could be promoted and preserved through art.
IN THE HILLS, THE CITIES
Oliver Stotz, Johanna Forster, (and more…)
Electric guitar ensemble with drums, founded in 2022 by Oliver Stotz, with participants from the music platform “klingt.org”. 6 guitars and a drum kit form an acoustic community of divergent artistic and musical approaches. The compositions for this ensemble, consisting of amateurs and professionals, all start from pop, but then veer off in many different directions: Minimal music, noise, avant-pop … and Ennio Morricone also blinks around the corner.

Participants: Hannah Stippl, Jennifer Fischer, Petra Sturm, Miriam Lesch, Karin Raith, Elisabeth Falkinger Moderation Korinna Lindinger
Mit der Erde sprechen
Hannah Stippl
In her exploration of the Anthropocene, Hannah Stippl focuses on the global impact of expanding technologies, overgrown hillsides, rising waters and the fundamental, indissoluble connection between humans and the earth.
Pandora
Milena Georgieva, Hari Stojan, Klimentina Li
Visuals by Klimentina Li.
Pandora is a demon pop duo formed by Milena Georgieva and Harald Stojan in 2017. With a background in different spheres.
Hoplitis & ovis beat
Alfred Lenz
Artist in Residence ! The existing often plays an important role in my work. Everything that surrounds me is material that I can change and re-contextualize using different methods. Found, borrowed and existing things become one.
Pain Studies / Schmerzstudien
Dariia Kuzmych
A series of drawings allows us to take a look at the adaptation to a foreign body. It replaces awkward formations that hinder movement and pull the whole body along. Do not look away.
Schafschlachtung
Clara Jacquemard
Sheep slaughter (Video 4k, 5-8min) Without religion, but with devotion is the relationship between butcher and lamb. From the pasture to the slaughterhouse, the paths have an impact and are never routine. A cut, a last roar, brutal touches of civilizational evolution.
From Mud To Outer Space
Christina Gruber, Paula Cohen
We start from Amstetten in Lower Austria (AT). We follow the Danube River until the Delta (RO).
Hyperbolisches Häkeln
various artists
Species-rich dry grassland HYPERBOLIC CROP FORMS according to
Daina_Taimiņa Participatory project.
Donna Haraway als Sprachgefährtin denken
Katharina Köller, Petra Sturm, (and more…)
Konfrontation, Konkurrenz, Kooperation: Zur wechselvollen Geschichte des Verhältnisses zwischen Kunst und Natur
Karin Raith
The debate as to whether art was superior to nature or vice versa was a recurring one. In particular, the interpretation of nature as something raw or pure, sinful or sacred, imperfect or exemplary determined the way in which people encountered it through the means of art.
