Ars Electronica Announces Richard Kriesche As Featured Artist 2010

Richard Kriesche (AT) is the featured artist at Ars Electronica 2010. A media artist and theoretician, exhibition designer, curator of artistic and scientific exhibitions, teacher as well as gallery proprietor, journalist and cultural affairs advisor to government agencies, he is one of Austria's most productive and influential artists.

This year, Ars Electronica is honoring Richard Kriesche's extensive work in accordance with his own wishes: instead of a retrospective exhibition, we are staging his latest work, "blood and tears", in cooperation with voestalpine and Knapp Logistik September 2-11, 2010 at voestalpine's Stahlwelt venue. And on September 4, 2010 at 7 PM, voestalpine and Ars Electronica cordially invite you to also attend "Featured Artist - Talk" with Richard Kriesche at Tabakfabrik Linz (Building 2, Ground Floor).
