| "Europe's rebirth must be the goal."?Peter Weibel
This publication offers insight into Weibel's diverse work. One main area consists of works in which the artist takes up core questions about Europe. For example, his computer-video installation Die Vertreibung der Vernunft (The Expulsion of Reason) of 1993 thematizes the forced emigration of artists and intellectuals from Austria between 1933 and 1945. In other works critical of the system, which always question the usual concept of art as well, Weibel addresses migration, expulsion, war, and terrorism as well as economic and ecological catastrophes.
Languages: English and German
The LOVIS-CORINTH-PREIS was first awarded by the KünstlerGilde e. V. in the Kunstforum Ostdeutsche Galerie Regensburg in 1974.
Under the conditions of the nascent age of media, since the 1960s PETER WEIBEL (*1944, Odessa) has created an oeuvre that dares to conceive artistic creativity as an open field of action. He is head of the ZKM, Karlsruhe until 2023. Since 2017 he has been director of the Peter Weibel Research Institute for Digital Culture at the Universität für angewandte Kunst in Vienna.
