Book Hero thinking about your next read

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Contemporary art has produced its own "bubble" and often barely reaches the general public—this self-isolation is its blind spot. Why does the implicit idea still persist that avant-garde art is a matter for the few? Why don't curators try harder to break out of their own comfort zone?

This was precisely the intention behind the 2021 edition of steirischer herbst: The Way Out. It offered a curatorial sketch for a way of working outdoors, in public space, where an audience beyond the "bubble" can be found. This catalogue shows how performances and artistic interventions in the middle of the city can create meaningful experiences for everyone.
