The
aim of this lecture is to offer insight into the workings of (small) galleries in order to create awareness for students in
terms of what to look for when collaborating with a gallery - be it on a project or long term basis. Students are encouraged
to send questions upfront in order for the lecturer to absorb as many concerns for the presentation.

Sophie Tappeiner opened the eponymous gallery in May 2017. Upon her return to Vienna
she observed that the city’s art scene - albeit vibrant, at the time - lacked young galleries offering exposure, context and
support on an international level. By opening the gallery Tappeiner hoped to nurture artists’ careers and to further offer
something of value to the fabric of the local scene.The gallery’s program reflects the founders interest in perceptions of
identity, the body, and how these are both situated in and impact the world around us. While the aesthetic of the programme
is based deeply within the logic of each artist’s practice it shares a tendency towards explorational materiality and a strong
sense of figurative presence.
