As one of the most innovative exhibition spaces in Austria, HALLE FÜR KUNST is dedicated to the production and presentation of key artistic positions in the field of contemporary art and modernism. The high-quality temporary exhibitions are shown to their best advantage in the centrally located architectural jewel of late modernism, which emphasises the presentation of carefully curated projects. These are accompanied by a weekly supporting and educational programme as well as informative online formats and publications. In its programme, the Kunsthalle pursues an international orientation that is dedicated to significant and sometimes unexpected artistic developments, while at the same time building on the legendary history of ‘Graz Art’ and the numerous contributions realised here by Albert Oehlen, Jörg Schlick, Cosey Fanny Tutti, Rosemarie Trockel and Stano Filko. As a lively platform, it is important to the institution to facilitate access for everyone with free admission so that art can be experienced and discussed as a corrective and marker in a complex present.

The exhibition Future of Melancholia explores the role of art in shaping our understanding of the future, highlighting melancholy as a defining mood of our time that fosters reflection on emotional, psychological, social, and thus political conditions. The exhibition presents a curated dialogue between historical and contemporary artists from Serbia: historical Surrealist positions of the so-called Belgrade group from the 1920s, neo-Surrealist positions from the 1950s to the 1990s and contemporary positions, alluding to the Surrealist and incorporating themes of melancholia, doubts and nostalgia, and can thus be considered as Serbian post-surrealists.
