“I see myself as a kind of “talent scout” and my mission since the founding of the projektraum (project room) more than 20 years ago is to filter out some “outstanding artistic positions with impact and quality” from a multitude of possibilities and to install them in an international environment position. Artists such as JULIE HAYWARD, MARLENE HAUSEGGER, CANAN DAGDELEN, ALFREDO BARSUGLIA, ALDO GIANNOTTI, MICHAEL SCHRATTENTHALER, HADRIEN DUSSOIX or MICHAIL MICHAILOV have also gained international success.
Right from the start I made a conscious decision to use the term “projektraum” (project room) and not gallery, as this term allows me more opportunities in the selection of artistic positions.”
The MQ is a place where art is not only seen, but is also produced. The creative area at Q21 spans 7,000 square meters across several floors of the baroque building. Q21 is a workplace for initiatives, associations, galleries, agencies, and editorial offices; it also houses international artists-in-residence and serves as a venue for artistic presentations and exhibitions.
