Part 2: Villa Mautner-Jäger
From 1-7 October 2023, Villa Mautner-Jäger hosts Bet Alpha, featuring video installations and spatial screenings that transform the villa into a dynamic art space.
Bet Alpha amounts to an experience converting Villa Mautner-Jӓger into a haven, an enclave severed from its surrounding, from the urban, communal fabric in which it is imbued. It treats its venue as a site of day-dreaming, as a launch pad towards events and situations transcending the historical present; the commonly established, or rather, the ideologically hegemonic, everyday reality.
