Margret Wibmer SALON D’AMOUR Exhibition @ Museum Wattens, Austria until 5th August 2024

On view at the museum is a documentation of my long-term participative performance ‘Salon d’Amour’, the newly published artist publication by the same name and a selection of photographic and sculptural works, including loans from local art collections. Some of the works are placed within the museum collection, ‘disturbing’ the given narrative.

The exhibition is an initiative of Kunstraum Wattenbach and curator Markus Strieder and was supported by Marktgemeinde Wattens and Land Tirol.
