Oliver Hangl

Oliver Hangl bewegt sich in performativen Disziplinen und medialen Räumen ebenso wie in den klassischen Ausstellungsräumen der bildenden Kunst. Realitätsbrüche, Verdoppelungen und Zwischenwelten markieren seine aktuellen Arbeiten, die nicht an ein Medium gebunden sind. Zahlreiche orts- und kontextspezifische, teils partizipatorische Projektrealisierungen im öffentlichen Raum. Seit Anfang 2008 betreibt er den Projektraum k48 – Offensive für zeitgenössische Wahrnehmung in Wien.

Oliver Hangl originally started his career as actor and scenic designer in 1993 (best known for his long-term acting as “Robin” in the TV-production “Phettbergs Nette Leit Show”) is just as active in performative disciplines and medial spaces as he is in classical fine arts exhibition sites. His current works, which are not tied to one medium, are marked by breaks in reality, doublings, and in between realms. Hangl is involved in a broad range of activities, in which he frequently switches between the positions of artist, director, actor and producer. Numerous site-specific, contextual and participatory projects in public space. 
Since 2008 he has been running his own project space k48 – offensive for contemporary perception in Vienna.
