Developments in Austrian photography, film, video, and computers, as well as the use of these media in our daily lives, have had a significant impact on the production and reception of artworks. Artists embrace the opportunities these new technologies provide while at the same time using these information systems as inspiration for their works. Digital spaces are created, navigated, and documented and with the help of electronic image artworks can be produced in which the digital and real world can no longer be separated, where a kind of hybrid reality comes into existence.
Nine artists have been selected from the photography collection at the Museum der Moderne, Salzburg (including the photo collection of the Ministry of Education, Arts, and Culture) to participate in this exhibition curated by Margit Zuckriegl.
Contributing artists include: Hubert Blanz, Valie Export, Dorothee Golz, Helmut Grill, Robert F. Hammerstiel, Dieter Huber, Birgit Jürgenssen, Iris Klein, Anita Witek.
