Director: VALIE EXPORT

Elfriede Jelinek and VALIE EXPORT are companions. They have repeatedly referred to one another and worked on mutual projects. Elfriede Jelinek. News from Home 18.8.88 shows Jelinek watching the news, reacting, and mainly: commenting on it. We take up the specific media-immanent setting and present this work as an installation in the Augarten Art Hotel. An expedition through the internet, on the trail of Elfriede Jelinek, seems like a message from the past that speaks to us directly.
