The Kunsthalle Wien Prize is a joint project of the University of Applied Arts Vienna, theAcademy of Fine Arts Vienna, and the Kunsthalle Wien. A jury annually awards an artist from the universities’s programs who independently address sociopolitical topics within their art. The award funds an exhibition and catalog. For 2017, the topic focused on digital imaging and its far-reaching political and social ramifications in the twenty-first century.Marlene Maier (Academy of Fine Arts, Vienna) was awarded for her three-channel videoinstallation Food only exists on pictures, a multidimensional space of uncertainty, wherethe present and the absent encounter each other simultaneously. The artist obtained thetext and image material for her scripts from the internet, and employed a diverse range ofimage concepts to reformulate this material—from assembling video-stock footage toreenacting found photographic material, to the reduction of the visual level on close-upsof a monitor. The compact catalog features a foldout poster, installation shots, and aconversation between the artist and Kunsthalle Wien director Nicolaus Schafhausen.
