Stadttheater Gmunden, Theatergasse 7

Main hall on the ground floor

• 20 h Opening by Tom Neuwirth and the Capital of Culture team
  Tom Neuwirth has toured the world as Conchita and has inspired thousands. He has returned to support and accompany the Capital of Culture as a member of the committee, and his words will span an arc from the opening in January to the final departure of the Capital of Culture
• 20:15 – 21 h Counter and Strings. Alois Mühlbacher and the String Quartet. (concert)
  The self-definition of the 4 gentlemen from Linz is already a real eye-opener: JazzRockClassicalCrossover String Quartet. And then there is the great countertenor Alois Mühlbacher. A sonic experience and an exciting encounter from Queen to Vivaldi.
• 21 – 21:45 Timpani, triangle and tam-tam. The incredible world of Vivi Vassileva. (percussion)
  The young percussionist Vivi Vassileva regularly sets off from her home in Ebensee to wow audiences in concert halls around the world.  Together with guitarist Lucas Campara Diniz, she has created a multi-sound spectacle for the Capital of Culture that puts composers such as Iannis Xenakis in a new, fresh light.
• 22 – 23 h HipHop meets Pop, Indie joins Rap. Sharktank (concert)
  Hip hop meets pop, indie joins rap: Katrin, Mile and Marco not only overcome and combine genres in their interplay – as Sharktank, they open up “a niche on the German-speaking music market that we didn’t know existed until now” (DIFFUS); where playful feel-good beats and light-hearted instrumentals meet conscious rap and melodic vocals, the Viennese trio has found its colourful, independent sound – jump in & swim along!
• 23:15 – 01 h Doris UHLICH (DJ performance) Every Body Boom
  The choreographer, performer and DJ Doris Uhlich invites you to an energetic night of dance in which her artistic ideas resonate. A mixture of her favourite sounds and beats will be served up, from pop to techno and classical music. The body is celebrated in a sound bath of the most diverse musical genres.
• 01 h – end Miss Ivanka T. (DJ performance, Salzkammerqueer hosted by Aufbruch, Salzkammergut!)
  Icon, legend & sensation Miss Ivanka T. With a passport from Austria and a heart in Berlin, she is the symbiosis of the cheeky country mouse with the Berlin city brat in one. From pop, hosting, TV to make-up, she is at home wherever dialect & diversity is allowed to reign & people want to forget the outside world for an hour.

Bar on the 1st floor

• 20 – 23 h korli (DJ set)
  Growing up in the 90s – the decade of CDs – Klara aka korli’s love of music began with her parents’ CD collection. Instead of vinyl stores, LIBROs were bought empty and, in the absence of alternatives, 30-second snippets were downloaded from the first music sites on the Internet. The CDs have disappeared, the love of music and the data size of the downloaded music have grown. Their sets build a bridge from R’n’B to hip hop to house and electronic bass music, and sometimes a tribute to the decade of CDs awaits at the end of this bridge.
• 23 h – end DJ Rich Parents (DJ set, Salzkammerqueer hosted by Aufbruch, Salzkammergut!)
  Salzkammerqueer hosted by Aufbruch, Salzkammergut! DJ Rich Parents plays pop to hyperpop but mainly goes off, brings not only queer bangers but the whole party. DJ RP’s best friends are Kylie and Kim, which sums it up, so treat them like a slut and you won’t get them out of your head.

Kinosaal 1. Floor

• 20 h – midnight Let’s go, Salzkammergut! Model region for rural Europe
  Documentation European Capital of Culture Bad Ischl Salzkammergut 2024, Chris Gütl

Former drugstore in the city centre, Rathausplatz 6

• From 17 h JUKEBOX with ABSINTH BAR by God’s Entertainment (Analogue Juke Box)
  K20, J14, U07, A11 are the abbreviations used on menus in popular restaurants. They allow us to communicate with each other and, in the best case, get served what we want. JUKEBOX works on the same principle, which nowadays can only be found on eBay or Willhaben under rarities and golden prices. JUKE BOX by God’s Entertainment will open our eyes, mouths and ears again and at the same time make everyone emotionally satisfied. Our JUKE BOX is analogue, mechanical, speaks, takes 2 EURO, winks and has every song in stock that has somehow been documented in the last official 6000 years of human history. From Katy Perry to Vangelis. Forward into the past!
  ABSINTH BAR – RESEARCH SPACES FOR PSYCHOACTIVIST STATES
  What does it mean to be in a normal state? Mere conditioning to the familiar or being in line with syllogistic logic? If you are in the four-sided stands of a football stadium, for example, you wait spellbound for the slow motion replay of the goal or a disputed offside position. Standing at the checkout of a supermarket, do you immediately rule out the possibility that the overworked cashier is a German? After a moment’s thought, however, you quickly realise that the search for a logical conclusion seems illogical after all. Absinth Bar offers nothing that we are used to, it stands outside of any logic and learned sensuality. It refuses to keep its usual opening hours and does not adhere to any other conventional agreements. The meaningfulness of intoxication, the essence of the evening and the truthfulness of the psychoactive state are on the menu at HEURE VERTE.

Stadtpfarrkirche, Kirchenplatz 5

• 20:30 – 21:30 h Instrumental Art Pop by Anna Lang and Alois Eberl
  Sinfonia De Carnaval – that’s Anna Lang and Alois Eberl on cello, trombone, accordion, percussion, electronics and voices. Instrumental art pop that knows no boundaries: elements of jazz and pop meet electronic sound universes and the full sound spectrum of classical playing techniques. Violoncello, voice, trombone, percussion and accordion in a unique and newly defined sound!

Evangelische Kirche, Georgstraße 9

• 19:30 – 21 h Magdalena Hasibeder, organ I Georg Hasibeder, vibraphone I Jonathan Six, marimba: The Beauty and the Beat. Fireworks with organ and percussion.
  The Hasibeder siblings have made different careers from Linz. Organist Magdalena Hasibeder continues to enliven the local music scene with surprising encounters. Here she fuses the enchanting organ of the Evangelical Church with the large instruments of percussionists Jonathan Six and Georg Hasibeder  a truly fraternal firework display.

Bürgerspitalkirche, Kößlmühlgasse 1

• 21 – 24 h Holy Hydra with AVBRUCH
  AVBRUCH is an audio-visual installation that renegotiates the theme of new beginnings in an intense live performance. Here, past and future meet, traditions are broken, a dialogue of extremes unfolds: light meets dark, loud meets quiet, sacred meets profane, yin meets yang. The hospital church becomes an interface, a control centre between the worlds – a place where boundaries become blurred. Holy Bim Bam. Bum.

Stadtplatz Schiffsanlegestelle, Schiffsangelesteg am Rathausplatz

• 19 – 21 h Plateau Blo meets Urban Sauna Club meets Kombucha by Studio Clemens Bauder, DJ Sets by raumarbeiterinnen & friends
  At the end of the European Capital of Culture project Plateau Blo, the floating sauna on Lake Traun by the artists’ collective raumarbeiterinnen and in collaboration with the University of Art and Design Linz, we’re turning up the heat once again. Also taking part is the Kombucha Bar by Studio Clemens Bauder, architect and graduate of the University of Art, as well as the residence guests, Martin and Flora Szurcsik-Nimmervoll, who will translate the sauna to Rathausplatz with a wolf as an expansive construction and intervention. DJ sets by raumarbeiterinnen & friends embed the installation by the lake in nocturnal sounds. “The right dance outfit for the evening is an eye-catching bathrobe over a winter jacket.”

Café Brandl, Rathausplatz 1

• From 21:15 h DJ sets by Drumfabrik (DJs: Asense, Cerf, Critical Contents, Dvnc, Nikasun, Rawtid, Voltare, Zappla)
  With the mission to promote the electronic music scene in Upper Austria, the Drumfabrik cultural association was founded by Zappla in Vorchdorf around 7 years ago. Dozens of events with international stars of the scene later, the girls and boys are paying another visit to the town of Gmunden and are looking forward to a night of dancing, passion and of course: drum & bass!

The post Let’s go, Salzkammergut! appeared first on Salzkammergut 2024.

The evening is a mixture of traditional dance floor, games and party. Estonian, Norwegian, Austrian and Italian traditional music and dances meet contemporary forms. It is about elements and rules of celebration as well as playful spontaneous moments and stereotypes. Because the art and power of celebration lies in the balance between the rules that define the exact sequence of festivities and free, spontaneous, intuitive forms of expression that express joy and affection among the revellers, high spirits, but also sadness and anger. It is about European commonalities of celebration as well as differences, about personal feelings of home and global humanity. Whether traditional or artistic – the planned meets the spontaneous, choreography meets the free dance floor. The audience is invited to take part in games, competitions, rhythmic and musical elements, traditional dances and funny movements. Forms of celebration from the Arctic, Estonia and Austria are used that are no longer common today. Using material from archival sources, they will be reconstructed and embedded in contemporary social contexts to inspire new developments – a Future of Folkart.

Under the motto “The Art and Power of Celebration”, participants and visitors will experience a culture of togetherness and cultural affiliations from different perspectives. The aim of “Ausdrahn – Village Party & Volxfest” is to incorporate diversity as well as international and intersectional perspectives into regional folk cultural forms of expression. In the artistic process, questions about origin and developments in social, contemporary and international discourses are answered differently than in conventional settings.

Given norms of celebration are taken up, questioned and combined with new, diverse forms of expression. These hybrid forms are intended to contribute to a better understanding of different people, reduce fear of change and open up a personal approach to celebrating through body awareness.

Participating artists:
Farah Deen, Irene Egger (artistic research), Matteo Haitzmann, Sigurd-Johan Heide, Tone Ingvaldsen, Johanna- Adele Jüssi, Simon Mayer, Ole Nilssen, Espen Nordheim, Markus Prieth, Patric Redl, Hannah Shakti-Bühler, Mario* Sinnhofer, Irma-Maria Troy, Hannah Maria Wimmer

Village Party meets Volxfest is a joint project by Art in Motion/Simon Mayer, Kartellet / Sigurd-Johan Heide, Johanna-Adele Jüssi Estonia and Austrian Folk Music and Song Society / Irene Egger.

The post DORIS UHLICH Performance for a Coloured House appeared first on Salzkammergut 2024.

Haderer’s caricatures are razor-sharp, rich in detail, trenchant and irresistible. Caricatures familiar from newspapers and numerous publications are now projected onto the wall and presented by the master himself. With a story or two to go with them. In between, Hans Peter Falkner, a maestro on the accordion and part of the musical duo Attwenger for decades, sings and plays music. In his dances and songs, he combines unique linguistic artistry with a playful squeezebox sound. Haderer and Falkner rock each other through this evening: a colourful cartoon show with music, brains and humour.

For her, simply living in a place always means a confrontation with that place. Inevitably, content and questions arise about the building, the surroundings, the people and events. The artist responds to this with site-specific works that are created as a processable during her stay. You can see these new results on each of the four weekends.

SIMPLY LIVING  is also open for individual visits by appointment until 20/09/24.

The post Mette Edvardsen: Time has fallen asleep in the afternoon sunshine appeared first on Salzkammergut 2024.

Performance duration: 2 hours, Return journey: 14.00 hrs
Disembarking and docking via water taxi is possible at any time
From 9.00 hrs you can watch the preparatory performance on the rock from the lake and shore.
From 12.00 hrs video documentation of the SCHOTTERHERZEN, as well as a direct view of the creation of the FELSHERZEN.

PART 1 – SCHOTTERHERZ
(ISA STEIN/FELIX MITTER, active quarry, no visitors)
Karbach is an active quarry. Red and white Traunstein marble is quarried at the top of the Karbach quarry. The performance reacts to the conditions, utilises them and becomes part of them. In the active quarry, a heart is dug into the ground using an excavator.
The excavated material is then tipped into the approximately 120 metre deep drop shaft. The falling of stones creates an echo. This process is recorded virtually and acoustically and the shovelled heart connects with the formation process of the heart on the rock. 
 
PART 2 – FELSHERZ
(ISA STEIN/HELI PUTZ, disused quarry, visitors – view from the lake)
The subsequently created FELSHERZ is attached by the extreme climber Heli Putz as an echo by means of abseiling at a height of about 160m . Extreme climber Heli Putz – connected to ISA STEIN via headphones – sprays a heart of ink onto the Karbacher rock at a height of around 160 metres under the artist’s guidance. The echo, as well as the recordings from PART 1 Performance Schotterherz, are presented to the audience simultaneously acoustically and via video. Both hearts are ephemeral. The heart on the rock dissolves again after a few downpours.

So the first performance can only be seen in virtual transmission. The pure documentation makes it possible to perceive the process in the active mining area. In contrast to the intimate process on the plateau, the creation process of the FELSHERZENS in the disused part can be seen from the Karbach lake and landing site and can be understood as an echo. The duality plays with change, with making visible, the virtual and the real, as well as the temporal component. In a figurative sense, the heart refers to an originally prehistoric form of mark-making (cave painting, etc.), with which it was possible to document, depict and send messages. ISA STEIN calls this MESSAGING ART PERFORMANCE.
 
The heart is the most beautiful form of a message. 
The heart is visible from the lake until the next downpour and then dissolves.

Villa Karbach

Where the real and the bizarre meet, “scurrealism” enters the world. This neologism comes from Ebensee writer Walter Pilar, the instigator of the Villa Karbach art project. He and many other artists are showing works of unconventional power and intensity.

The post Unvermögensverkehrsstelle appeared first on Salzkammergut 2024.

From a starting point of poet Charles Baudelaire’s notion of Beauty as linked to the bizarre, to strangeness, to chaos, to pain and the fragility of beings, and adding the impulse of taking flight as a powerful symbol of optimism and unity, “C’est BEAU!” explores how beauty can actually be a conduit between personal and collective and even universal emotion.

The piece by DK-BEL and 6e Sens, which is also being performed as part of the Cultural Olympiad 2024 in Paris, conveys values like sharing, togetherness, kindness and respect. It offers the world a gentle and non-conformist vision of beauty, borrowed from these different concepts, performed in symbiosis with the places it passes through and its audiences’ own perceptions.

For several years now, French Compagnie DK-BEL has been presenting shows that feature dancers with and without disabilities. Very often, the feedback from the audience is simply: “It’s beautiful…”

From a starting point of poet Charles Baudelaire’s notion of Beauty as linked to the bizarre, to strangeness, to chaos, to pain and the fragility of beings, and adding the impulse of taking flight as a powerful symbol of optimism and unity, “C’est BEAU!” explores how beauty can actually be a conduit between personal and collective and even universal emotion.

The aim of the project is to utilise one of Plateau Blo’s floating platforms and transform it through experimental and collaborative water games. The collective proposes an alternative design of water parks by constructing systems of reused materials that can be activated by the public to interact with Lake Traunsee. 

At the opening on Saturday 29 June from 11am to 2pm, they will activate the installation, first with a performance in which they ask questions to the lake and then invite people to use the installation.

Opening 29. June ’24:
