Die ONE WORK GALLERY:
In der Galerie war jeweils nur ein Werk zu sehen. Auch wenn die Galerie geschlossen hatte, blieb das Licht an. So waren die Arbeiten durch die große Glastür rund um die Uhr zu sehen – eine 24 Stunden-Galerie!
Salvatore Viviano über SALVATORE VIVIANO:
„Ich bin Künstler, und nun auch Galerist, Galerieleiter und Galerie-Assistent in Personalunion. Das strengt an, insbesondere, weil ich andauernd mit mir zu tun habe. Ich sollte mich irgendwann feuern. Somit geschehen!“

Über das TAGEBUCH:
Wenn in einer Galerie statt eines Büros ein Doppelbett steht, liegt wohl ein Tagebuch unter dem Polster …
ABOUT ....:
Salvatore Viviano (1980, IT) opened the One Work Gallery in Vienna in May 2014 and closed it in December 2017. During its three and half years of fervent activity, the gallery exhibited and presented more than 50 artists. The gallery, as its name suggests, showed one work at a time.
The works were always visible through the big glass door, even when the door was locked. The light was always on, 24/7. The gallery had a double bed instead of an office, because comfort is mandatory.
Salvatore used to say “I am an artist, and now I am also a gallery owner, gallery director, and gallery assistant. It’s kind of exhausting, especially because I have to deal with myself all the time. Actually, I should fire myself one day. No sooner said than done.”
A lost and found diary, with stories, facts and visions about the three and half years of the gallery's life. A diary, a book, about a gallery (the One Work Gallery), a town (Vienna), a world (the art world) and an artist (Salvatore Viviano).
