open floor

open floor is an exhibition project that invites six collectives to lay out a common ground, a field on which various practices converge and coalesce in a shared room: Tratado Material, TECHNOPOLITICS, AUSLÄNDER, Danube Transformation Agency for Agency, Office Ukraine, and MŰTŐ. During the show and discursive events, each will reflect on their modes of cooperation – how objects, knowledge, feelings, and experiences are shared within them and with an audience. An intervention on the floor of VERSUCHSANSTALT (the temporary exhibtion space of the Kunsthalle Exnergasse) shall open the exhibition towards a discourse on its industrial past, generate connections between the artistic positions, and invite visitors to abide and enter into dialogue.
