We are pleased to announce No more, not yet the third exhibition of our Vienna-based project Am Schwarzenbergplatz.
As you pass through a narrow iron gate, traverse the garden, and enter the apartment, you’re greeted by a striking scene: a red floor, lofty ceiling, large windows, and shelves adorning the walls. This space serves as a resonant platform for representation, functioning as both a stage and a display structure that temporarily transforms into a gallery. The presence of artworks alters its ambience, rendering it an interstitial realm, distinct from conventional showrooms; it assumes the role of a framing structure, signifying a state of “no more” and “not yet.”
On entering, you’re greeted by a polyphony of voices—some audible, others conveyed through written words, phrases, and silent exclamation marks. Semantic layers intertwine, sometimes on the verge of collision, sometimes in dialogue. Language, whether articulated through letters or images, in motion or still, converges with abstract visual expressions. Words expand into the spatial realm, materializing as physical manifestations of thoughts and arguments.
