Resources, waste and the afterlife of art: in the 2022/23 academic year, students in the sculpture class of the Visual Arts Education programme explored the broad topic of the relationship between nature and art. External curator Yorick Josua Berta provided content support for the resulting projects, which resulted in the exhibition ‘Material flows. Resources, Waste and the Afterlife of Art’ for the state gallery “Kunst im Traklhaus”. He expanded the works of our sculpture students with positions from Linz art students and renowned artists.

The collaborative greenhouse of the sculpture class combines botany and synthetics; in doing so, it aims to fuse natural processes such as growth with long-term toxic materials such as (micro/macro) plastic. In this work, the students address the theme of "nature:art" from a wide variety of perspectives. Thus, working groups have each focused on space, growth and object and united them in the common greenhouse.

How can (body) boundaries be overcome and what has one's own body not yet learned? Ten students of the teacher training programme "Design: Technology.Textiles" are exploring these questions in an exhibition at the Bauhaus Museum Dessau.
Textiles, with their many inherent stories, are an expression of our identity. They are a reflection of social structures and community identities. They are mediators between the individual and the community. As clothing for the body, space and objects, they provide information about cultural and social everyday life.
Once a year, students of visual education are invited to perform in the Great Hall of the Salzburg Künstlerhaus. This close relationship between an art association and students in the experimental phase is unique in Austria - and a challenge for the students.
