An American based in Berlin and Vienna, Kimberly Bradley has long straddled the worlds of mainstream culture journalism (BBC Culture, The New York Times, Monocle, and others) and art criticism in art publications ranging from populist to theoretical (art-agenda, ArtReview, frieze, monopol, etc). She reviews exhibitions, profiles artists, and writes reportages on underexposed areas and issues of the art world; she also writes artist statements and catalogue essays.
Since 2013, she has taught undergraduate courses on contemporary art practices and theory at New York University, Berlin.

Most recenctly, her articles were published in frieze, monocle, and New York Times.

Here you can listen to her review of a couple of exhibitions in Vienna that were on view in Summer 2015.

Irina Nakhova's work became known to a broader audience when this year the Russian Pavilion at the 56th Venice Biennale presented her complex work "The Green Pavilion". For the opening reception on 10 December 2015 of the group show "Suprematism Infinity: Reflections, Interpretations, Explorations" at the Columbia University | Harriman Institute in New York, Nakhova will give a talk and will show a series of video clips documenting the Green Pavilion’s "total environments".

Irina Nakhova has worked and lived between Moscow and the United States since 1992. She is the pioneer of the genre of total installation in Soviet underground art. Nakhova works concurrently in painting – creating structured environments from several superimposed planes – and installation, her most vivid works employing painting, digital printing, sculpture, and interactive video and audio. Nakhova’s installations often create and define space using formal means and material, together with biting wit and a historical and social perspective. In 2013, she won the prestigious Kandinsky Prize for Best Project of the Year.

feld72 works at the interface between architecture, applied urbanism and art. Since establishing their own studio in Vienna in 2002, besides planning building projects for their own series Urban Strategies, the collective has expanded the field of architecture, considering questions of the use and perception of public space.
Internationally, feld72 has realised many projects of various dimensions, ranging from master plans, through designs for buildings and exhibition spaces, to urban strategies and extensive interventions in public space. feld72 has participated in La Biennale di Venezia – art and architecture exhibitions – in 2011, 2010, 2008 and 2004 as well as in the São Paulo Architecture Biennial in 2007.

On 8 December, Michael Obrist will give a talk about "Ermöglichungsarchitektur" at the Staatliche Akademie der Bildenden Künste Stuttgart.

Bernhard Cella is interested in the general economic and sculptural conditions under which artist's books can serve as artistic material. To this end, in 2007 he devised in his studio the Salon für Kunstbuch – a 1:1 scale model of a bookshop which he has been running in the "21er Haus" in Vienna since 2011. Here he has assembled a collection of 9,000 artist's books, which he constantly rearranges into unaccustomed combinations, so that they enter into material dialogue. Buying and selling become part of his independent artistic practice.

Bernhard Cella and the co-editors are currently presenting their latest book "NO-ISBN on self-publishing" in a series of performative lectures at different places. The next one will take place "at home" at the Salon für Kunstbuch in the 21er Haus in Vienna, on December 2, 7 p.m.

Further artistic works of Bernhard Cella are currently on view in the group exhibition "Creating Common Good" in the Kunst Haus Wien until 10 January 2016. And on permanent view is his recently initiated large-scale tapestry "Avant la Lettre" in the Stadtbibliothek in Salzburg.

Although Lukas Pusch’s works are often regarded as provocative, his priority is image-finding and artistic autonomy. His working method might be called a combination of psychoanalytical free association and research. His most spectacular works, which have received worldwide recognition, include the founding of the first Centre for Contemporary Art in Siberia (2008) and of Slum TV (2006), a local TV station in Mathare, Nairobi – one of the largest slums in Africa.

This weekend, his works are on view at the Video- and performance festival „Play/II“ at CATCologne. And if you already made it to Cologne, continue to Sundern to see the opening of his solo presentation at the Kunstverein Sundern-Sauerland on Sunday.
