Das Tor zur Unwirklichkeit
\n<\/em>Michael Gu\u0308lzow<\/strong><\/p>\n

What if we could effortlessly move between news, science fiction, and fake worlds? In Michael G\u00fclzow’s video installation, we travel with the protagonists through time and realities. The filmmaker examines the media construction of truth and blurs reality and fiction by mounting found footage and his own material. He humorously reveals the mechanisms of manipulation and deconstructs post-factual narratives. Curated by Martin Grabner.<\/p>\n

Book presentation
\nLisl Ponger. Semiotische Geister \/ Semiotic Ghosts<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Lisl Ponger is a visual artist working at the intersection of art, art history, and ethnology. Using photography, film, and installation, she has developed a \u201cPonger perspective\u201d that deconstructs dominant visual regimes in art, society, and politics. This collection of essays, edited by Elisabeth Streit and Dietmar Schwarzler, is the first to examine Ponger’s entire artistic and socio-political engagement and her strategies against the iconographies of injustice.<\/p>\n

Claudia Larcher examines architecture as a powerful order: spaces shape perception, emotions, and approaches, reflecting political systems and social values. In her work, Larcher moves through interior and urban spaces where absence is palpable and objects appear as witnesses to lived history. Digital collages create spaces between reality and imagination, while sound, silence, and soundscapes amplify the uncanny and make places acoustically tangible.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Still aus Die Kunstkomplizen \u00a9 WILDartFILM<\/p><\/div>\n

Workshop discussion
\nDie Kunstkomplizen<\/em>
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

What happens when art is created not in a studio, but in the midst of life? Ebba Sinzinger’s film Die Kunstkomplizen (The Art Accomplices) offers insights into the lives of Brigitte Prinzgau and Wolfgang Podgorschek, an artistic couple who, under the alias PRINZpod, cultivate a special complicity. Embedded in an interdisciplinary approach, a humorous and true-to-life story unfolds about partnership on many levels. Nathalie Pollauf talks to the filmmaker about artistic processes, artistic relationships, and the power of interconnection.<\/p>\n

In the panel discussion following the film program, the questions raised in the films will be further explored: Who sits at the ominous regulars’ table? And who doesn’t? Who is actually in charge here\u2014the guest or the landlady? And what kind of future do we actually want for the pub? We discuss generational conflicts, the preservation of village centers, where the pub stands between tradition and change, and whether it needs to be rethought with filmmakers and experts. With Gloria Gammer (director), Heidemarie Stuck (town center manager, Moosburg), and Thomas Heissenberger (mayor & cooperative founder of s’Hutwisch \u2013 Wirtshaus am Dach der Welt, Hochneukirchen-Gschaidt).<\/p>\n
