It's that time again! Kunsthaus Graz in cooperation with Haus der Architektur (HDA) and Camera Austria invite you again to the student day ‘UNI KUM!’ on 15 November 2024.
This year, the student day will take place immediately after the opening of the exhibition Poetics of Power and as part of the two-day conference Entanglements. The Politics of Aesthetics and Retelling of Modernisms and Modern Art on 15 and 16 November 2024.
Experts, researchers, theorists, artists and curators from a broad international environment will present and invite discussion.
For those who prefer something less specialised and simply want to get to know the Kunsthaus Graz, we also offer tours of the architecture at the Kunsthaus and at our neighbours Camera Austria and Haus der Architektur. Of course, there will also be time to chat and catch up - in Space03 with free punch.
12 noon: Kunsthaus Graz
Exhibition tour: Poetics of Power (in German)
On a joint tour of the Poetics of Power exhibition, we will take a closer look at the individual artistic positions. Can power also be poetic? How does it become visible and how can it be confronted?

Lectures by artists from the Poetics of Power exhibition and discussion
For all those who would like to delve deeper into the topic of the seductive nature of power, there will be lectures by the artists Goshka Macuga, Lukas Marxt & Jošt Franko on the topic of Poetics of Power. Discussion is welcome!

Get-together in Space03
Need a little time out? Just follow the scent of cinnamon, orange and wine; we have set up a cosy pre-Christmas area in the belly of our ‘Friendly Alien’. It will be much warmer and cosier here during the cold season.
