Valie Export. Archive Matters. Dokumente lesen und zeigen. To read and to show documents

Valie Export Archive Matters provides a first insight into the holdings of the artist's premature legacy. It seeks to contextualize archival material with the works of art. Moreover, it documents the archive's presentations in the exhibitions in Linz, Berlin and Montréal between 2017 and 2021, showing not only the rich archival material but also experimental forms of display in relation to the format of the archive. The extensive publication containing numerous illustrations and texts is being published as volume 2 within the Valie Export Center Linz publication series.Text: Christa Blümlinger, Diana Bulzan, Anna Fliri, Sabine Folie, Madeleine Freund
