Benoît Piéron’s artistic practice is informed by a lifelong history of illness, with his childhood having been mostly spent in hospital.

May 5, 2023 to January 7, 2024

The turbulent biography of Elisabeth Wild reads like a recap of the twentieth century. Marked by flight and displacement, national identification and disidentification, her life seemed constantly to hit the reset button. This is not least evident in her oeuvre, which is highly diverse in terms of the media she used—including painting, sculpture, and textile design as well as collages and subsequent installations. mumok presents her first retrospective exhibition, turning the spotlight on her late works as well as her previously unknown early works.

Curator Marianne Dobner and art educator Mikki Muhr give a video tour of the artist's first comprehensive retrospective, which focuses on her late work as well as her unknown early work. Video in German. 

October 8, 2022 to April 16, 2023

Artist Emília Rigová deals with the history as well as the contemporary experiences of the Rom*nja. In her exhibition Nane Oda Lavutaris / Who Will Play for Me?, which can be seen at mumok until April 16, 2023, living plants play a central role alongside self-playing pianos and notes carved in stone. They refer to the origins and migration routes of the Rom*nja, while the fragmentary melodies recall their musical tradition and also historical suffering.
 

In our new video Emília Rigová talks about her artistic work and her exhibition at mumok.
