Styrian artist, choreographer and filmmaker Leon Höllhumer creates live performance events, films and exhibition projects. His practice plays with elements of the performative and the theatrical exploring questions of identity, body and power. In intricate settings, Höllhumer develops situational plots and scenic images that allow him to interact with various protagonists, such as the choreographer Florentina Holzinger, the musicians PUKE PUDDLE and the writer Ferdinand Schmalz. Aesthetically, his works refer to punk and horror films as well as various analogue and digital DIYtechniques. Above all, his worlds are wild, if not rough and very direct.

Louise Giovanelli
A Song of Ascents

Slide show

21.7.2025

Louise Giovanelli paints striking hypnotic works that emit light both on a visual and metaphorical level. Her works often show mysterious objects, such as a closed curtain, a glimmering shock of hair, or the reflecting surface of a cocktail glass. There are also human figures, often women, seemingly caught in moments between awe and desperation, or about to cross over a border of experience and knowledge.
