In today's radio show, we portray the Linz-based artists' collective friends of art. The collective currently consists of four people: Claudia Dworschak, Marion Klimmer, Helga Lohninger and Viktoria Schlögl. We asked them about their projects, in particular the manifesto they created in 2023 entitled PUNKT. In the manifesto, they summarize their many years of experience in the art scene and declare their commitment to resisting the cult of genius in art and promoting collective work.

PUNKT. The manifesto of the friends of art

You can listen to an interview with three of the four members of the artists' collective: Claudia Dworschak, Marion Klimmer and Helga Lohninger. They told us about their manifesto and gave us insights into their work and perspectives.
