The mobile pavilion, as the travelling branch of the new, major ‘Regional Exhibition’, can be visited in Vienna and at four locations in Styria. In a monumental video installation covering 800 square metres, an analysis of the present in Styria is shown, exclusively presented in moving images and titled ‘who we are. Art, Diversity, Landscape.‘ Participating are 78 artists, as well as personalities from the fields of art, literature, composition, directing and acting.
‘As part of SHOWING STYRIA, the mobile pavilion as a travelling branch of the Universalmuseum Joanneum re-defines the format of provincial exhibitions. Covering the various regions of the province, using a large-format panorama of films and moving images, it tells of Styria as a province of art, which manifests itself as an essential component in all areas of life.’

The project ‘VOICES OF STYRIA - Central positions from the art and culture scene’ explores questions of origin, of private and artistic localisation. What role is played by the places we come from, where we live and work? What relationship do artists who either live locally or are no longer in Styria have to their home region? 31 well-known figures from the fields of visual art, literature, directing, acting and composition tell of their connection to Styria in short video statements realised especially for SHOWING STYRIA. The videos offer a visualisation of different approaches, opinions and attitudes.
