Julius Deutschbauer—30 Years of Poster Design
For 30 years Julius Deutschbauer has been unsettling Vienna’s cityscape with his self-commissioned posters. Did you know how close wit, irony, and provocation can be? Deutschbauer gives us the answer. The MAK is presenting all 208 posters from the past three decades in a compact show. As a constant observer of social developments, Deutschbauer always shows himself, looking seriously into the camera, with texts and comments on exhibitions, performances, festivals, and even political content. In a specially arranged “cozy corner” of the Works on Paper Room, Deutschbauer, the performing artist, offers insight into his “Library of Unread Books,” which has travelled widely and has constantly been expanded since 1997, with a wide variety of performative events.

Lili Reynaud-Dewar
Rome, 1er et 2 novembre 1975
Using performative scenarios, Lili Reynaud-Dewar (* 1975) comments on private and public space. She translates images of the individual and the collective into different choreographies. Her project Rome, 1er et 2 novembre 1975, presented at the MAK Direktion, extends the queer narrative between body and space to include the political dimension. The four-part multime- dia video installation refers to the events of the night of 1st and 2nd November 1975, when the poet and experimental filmmaker Pier Paolo Pasolini was murdered near Rome. Reynaud-Dewar restages excerpts from a film and an interview with actors from the art scene—artists, theoreticians, curators, collectors, and students such as Verena Dengler, Diedrich Diederichsen, and Marina Faust.
