STEPHAN LUGBAUER

Austrian video artist and filmmaker Stephan Lugbauer presents two of his projects, set in two different venues. A dialogue about the past with Axel Huber takes place at the facilities of the Freud-house in Vienna. Beijing offers a glimpse into the near future with Chinese artists and amateur actors: a world where artists lead questionable lives. The book provides information on the films, an essay by Lina Leonore Morawetz and a very precise conversation between Stephan Lugbauer and Ines Kleesattel about the overpowering of the artist in the Post-Fordism and the last possible ways to retreat. “Maybe this utopia is nothing other than dust”
