Galerie wechselstrom
“wechselstrom” was founded by Christoph Theiler and Renate Pittroff in 2004 and is based in Vienna’s 16th district. This is also the location of the off-space “galerie wechselstrom,” which is used as a workspace and temporary exhibition and performance space. Annual events include “Räume für Notizen” and the “Grundstein-Festival”.
In addition to works for theater and radio plays, “wechselstrom” is active in the fields of sound installation, media art, and social sculpture:
REPLY was a project for the Mozart Year, in which Mozart’s begging letters were sent once again under his own name to the 100 richest Germans and Austrians. SAMENSCHLEUDER aimed to transform automobile driving into an environmentally friendly activity. In the TRACKER DOG project, owners followed their dogs. New hiking maps for Lower Austria were created from the routes recorded with GPS. A PIEFKEDENKMAL was built in Gänserndorf near Vienna in 2009. It is a sound sculpture made of Corten steel.
