< rotor >

Centre for Contemporary Art

< rotor > is a center for contemporary art located in Graz, Austria. We communicate contemporary art to a broad public, focusing on artistic works that explicitly deal with the social, political, ecological and economic questions of the present day.

Promoting cooperation and networked action are essential elements of the < rotor > philosophy. This concerns networking efforts within the art field but also means acting beyond the boundaries of art by involving people and organisations from different backgrounds in the programming.

The search for satisfactory methods of collaboration and possibilities of participation in artistic processes for the public in general or for specific target audiences is another main focus.

For < rotor >, the public space is an important setting to make art happen. Leaving the boundaries of the art space is used to actively bring people into contact with art and thus to expand the audience.

IN-SITU

Artistic Positions on Endangered Biodiversity and the Coexistence of Species

Until recently, an exhibition organised by < rotor > titled EX-SITU was on display in Sarajevo. It was dedicated to the endangered Bosnian mountain newt, which the National Museum of Bosnia and Herzegovina is working to preserve.
The title IN-SITU of the current exhibition refers to the greater horseshoe bat, an endangered bat species whose last breeding colony in Austria is located in the attic of Schloss Eggenberg, Graz.

The exhibited artworks are situated in the field of tension between nature, human activity and (species) diversity versus endangered forms of life in the Capitalocene.
