Gerald Moser

Born 1977 in Steyr, Austria
Studied at the University of Art, Linz and
at the University for Applied Arts, Vienna
Lives and works in Vienna, Austria


Interdisciplinarity and complex multilayers are the main characteristics of Gerald Moser's integral works. His project-specific identity shifts from artist to curator to exhibition designer, explaining his focus on a dialogue between genres. Aiming to enable new ways of perception and point of views, he dismisses all labels as well as the blank and non-obvious: In the midst, he establishes a field full of tension yet a room to be filled with one's experiences.

Manifestations of all forms are welcome to embody his personal credo: "Purpose and Scepsis". Gerald's involvements with the relationship of space and time, with an alternate awareness, with performative as well as with participative matters are subject to the oeuvre, the producer and the recipients – addressing all levels, mixing roles. His works often turn out to be manuals for the audience, inviting people to approach his work not only through the eyes, but emotionally, and with all their being.
