What does nation mean today? How do myths, identity, and heritage shape our society? Steirischer herbst '24 explored precisely these questions-radically, playfully, and profoundly. The central exhibition transformed the Neue Galerie Graz into an imaginary museum of national complexes and dark fantasies, while performances, installations, and the renowned herbstkabarett examined the theme from multiple perspectives.This richly illustrated publication documents the 57th edition of the festival and brings together essays by leading thinkers on nationalism, collective memory, and the horrors hidden within the narratives of a "fatherland." A must-read for art and culture enthusiasts, capturing the pulse of our time.High-quality images of artworks & performancesEssays on nationalism, identity, and political artDocumentation of all festival projectsFor everyone interested in contemporary art, society, and politics!Steirischer herbst is an interdisciplinary festival for contemporary art. Held annually in Graz and across Styria since 1968, it connects visual art, performance, theater, opera, music, and literature.

Die renommierte britische Künstlerin Jenny Saville setzt sich in ihrem malerisch-grafischen Oeuvre mit der jahrhundertealten Tradition von Körperbildern auseinander. Ihre Figurendarstellungen oszillieren zwischen der Idealisierung der Form und deren Dekonstruktion. Saville lässt sich von der Kunstgeschichte - von alten Meistern wie Leonardo und Raffael bis hin zu Egon Schiele, Picasso, Francis Bacon und Lucian Freud - zu einer Malerei inspirieren, die von Körperlichkeit, Fleischlichkeit, dem Zusammenspiel von neuen und alten Techniken geprägt ist. Ob sie die Geschichte, die Körper anderer oder sich selbst darstellt, ihr Werk zeichnet sich immer dadurch aus, dass es sich über konventionelle Vorstellungen von Schönheit und Hässlichkeit hinwegsetzt.Als Mitglied der Young British Artists (YBAs) erneut Jenny Saville (*1970 in Cambridge) erneuerte sie die zeitgenössische figurative Malerei: oszillierend zwischen Figuration und Abstraktion thematisiert sie die Repräsentation und Wahrnehmung des Körpers.

The third in a series of books investigating the future of the museum, following on "The Future of the Museum: 28 Dialogues" (2020) and "Imagining the Future of the Museum: 21 Dialogues With Architects" (2022). Rounding out the previous volumes, which examined the "software" and the "hardware" of the museum, the 40 dialogues in the third installment of the trilogy survey the social, cultural, economic, institutional, and technological conditions of the wider ecology in which museums operate. The conversations include leading figures from around the world, engaging voices not heard in the prior volumes: artists, curators, collectors, members of the art trade, sociologists, entrepreneurs, and others. Together, they offer a portrait of an art world seeking to adapt to a rapidly changing society.ANDRÁS SZÁNTÓ (*1964, Budapest), PhD, advises museums, cultural institutions, and leading brands on cultural strategy.
