March 11, 2025: The PhD-in-Practice program at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna kindly invites you to the Defense of Marwa Arsanios' dissertation project Matter of Alliances ~ the Metabolic Image of Land Struggle. The Examination Panel is made up of: Janine Jembere (chair), Anette Baldauf and Renate Lorenz (supervisors), and Bojana Kunst (external appraiser, Justus Liebig University Giessen). Marwa Arsanios is not only a great artist and researcher, she has also been a dear tutor@ DAI since 2017 when she embarked, together with Leon Filter and Leire Vergara, on the serial COOP: Curating Positions. We warmly salute Marwa and wish her lots of strenght & briiliance on that remarkable day in March !
Matters of Mounting ~ Kostas Tzimoulis (DAI, 2011) presents a series of sculptures and installations alongside photographs, prints, and drawings that function as possible (or improbable) bases for unrealised or imaginary sculptures – for sculptures that were started but, for one reason or another, left incomplete. With this exhibition, Tzimoulis proposes ‘a system of foundations and infrastructures towards a visionary form of sculpture that addresses themes of incompletion, negation, suspension, cancellation, but also the desire and potential for continuation.
Congratulations to Assem Hendawi (DAI 2020), who has been awarded one of twelve Moving Narratives Cycle 2 Fellowships, a collaboration between the Prince Claus Fund and the British Council. Fellows receive €10,000 to invest in the further growth of their practice, engaging their communities and harnessing the power of culture to challenge and transform. Assem works across moving image, digital media, and speculative methodologies, navigating the tension between prediction and fiction, questioning how technological speculation constructs realities that are lived, imposed, or contested. Focusing on time-based media, simulations, and computational aesthetics, he examines how images mediate history and construct speculative futures.
