ZEIT UND FORM, 19. October 2017–23. September 2018.
The sensitivity of artists responds to the period of time they live in. Cultural environment and politics ask for a new stylistic vocabulary and use of forms, which challenges the innovative ability of the artist. For the next generation these artistic achievements are a documentation of the previous past. Technology and the urge to let times move at a faster pace were the priorities of the 20th century. From Es and Über-Ich (Super-Ego) of the human psyche to the dawn of mankind into space. Electronics and the computer are the big challenges of our time.
Das menschliche Tun ist dem menschlichen Sein davongelaufen. (F. Dürrenmatt)
Marcel Duchamp elevated the act of thinking to an art form. Essential parts of todays art are not imaginable without Duchamps innovation of his Ready-mades. Joseph Beuys expanded this basis into the social-ethical, into the politics of art. Todays innovative artistic work shows also a manneristic component. With postmodernism, lifestyle and design, entertainment value gets a new importance. The clown steps into the art scene. (J. Hummel)

With artworks by: Joseph Beuys, Marcel Duchamp, Paul McCarthy, Mario Merz, Man Ray, Gerrit Rietveld, Ben Vautier, Andy Warhol
A selection of Austrian artists: Heinz Frank, Bruno Gironcoli, Josef Hoffmann, Hermann Nitsch, Arnulf Rainer, Claudia Schumann, Richard Teschner, Franz West, Heimo Zobernig

We were taking part as essential lenders in an exhibition about the architect Adolf Loos at the Museo del Disseny (Design Museum) in Barcelona. The title of the exhibition is Private Spaces and shows the work of Adolf Loos, who designed his architecture beyond his Raumplan (floorplan) from the inside to the outside.
Whereas his priority lay in the independent decision of his clients. The furniture he choose was influenced by anglophil furniture-designs and didn´t change essentially over a period of 30 years. His statement: it is easier to design a new chair than a better one affirms this fundamental concept. The variations of the furniture according to the particular users resulted in different settings in the interior, as todays postmodernism already considers it as given.

NATURE and FORM, 18 September–19 December 2015.
To contemplate on nature is one of the most primal stimulations of the human spirit and its creative urge is a prerequisite for the arts. Art is what makes life more interesting than art. (Robert Filliou)

THE FACE – THE EYES – THE GLANCE, 19 March–27 June 2015.
From the inscrutability of the eyes of a Fayum mummy portrait to the expressiveness of a woman's face by Paul McCarthy, the representations of faces carries both the features of subjectivity as well as the imprints of its cultural environment. To embed the inner amplitude of a state of mind at a single glance has been a challenge to fine arts for many centuries.

Curator's tour with Roland Fischer-Briand and Julius Hummel, 1 November 2014. In cooperation with Eyes On, Month of Photography 2014.

Man Ray: Tour / Detour, curated by Roland Fischer-Briand and Barbara Toifl, in cooperation with Eyes On, Month of Photography, 26 October–20 December 2014.
Man Ray established himself as a prominent representative of avant-garde photography in the modern era. His oeuvre moreover captured the surrealist mentality and that of his contemporary, Marcel Duchamp. Their shared belief in freeing the notion of desire and identity as blasting at societal convention also paved the way for Pierre Molinier to what could today be described as 'Gender Studies'. Emanating from the vehement act of liberation in Viennese Actionism, the avant-gardist of 'moving images' Kurt Kren, like Man Ray, inextricably unites the mentality of his artistic environment with his sense for the medium of photography.

TRASH & ART. An Exhibition in Progress II, 16 May–25 June 2014.

Prize for best art fair stand at art-austria, April 2014.

art-austria art fair, 3–6 April 2014.
Initiation of a dialogue between two distinctly pronounced positions in the Austrian field of contemporary art. The clear aesthetics of Michael Kienzer’s sculptures, affected by their materiality of industrial raw products, structure and accentuate the space in which Franz Graf responds with new paintings and drawings though estranging intermingling figurative motives, text and ornament in black and white. This encounter reciprocally brings forward the subtle sensuality of Kienzer’s installations and the sometimes tragic Eros in Graf’s figurations.

TRASH & ART An Exhibition in Progress I, 14 February–3 May 2014.
The visual arts have been helping themselves to the material ruins of our civilisation since, at the very latest, the dawn of Surrealism. This configuration has led to specific art forms: Realism, Fluxus and Conceptual Art. The tragic facade of consumption and the aesthetic of decay offers artists the opportunity to ask questions pertaining to meaning and being that can be expanded within installations and material assemblages. The use of trash and worthless found items is one of the most significant material associations of our time by which an idea can be elevated to art. (J. Hummel)

GEFÜHLSPEICHER, 12 September–21 December 2013.
All art transfers feelings. Feelings are in general considered as interpretations of emotions towards circumstances or objects and emotions as an essential part of human existence. The selection showed artworks, through which specific retained feelings are offered to the viewer, whether in an abstract or a naturalistic manner.
