Opening Performance "Memory Loop" by alien productions - May 11th 20:00 CET


"RE-PLAY - the beginnings of international media-art in Austria" is a
project of
the Generali Foundation (http://www.gfound.or.at/) in Vienna. The project
takes the form of an exhibition which extends into radio, TV and the
Internet and is accompanied by a book. An audio CD is planned. The project
deals with media-art by Austrian artists and international media-art-events
in Austria in the 70ies. It also includes the documentation of early
telecommunication-projects which originated in Austria in the early 80ies.

The audio-/radio-part of "RE-PLAY" is coproduced by Kunstradio, which -
although it was only founded in 1987 - considers developments in the 70ies
(events, exhibitions, artists initiatives, radio) and early 80ies
(art&telecommunication) as part of its own history and is still informed by
them.

RE-PLAY Audio / Radio consists of several parts:


on site:  the sound-part of the exhibition on the premises of the Generali
          Foundation includes:

              - the reconstruction of serveral installations from the 70ies

              - a specific selection of international audioworks from the 70ies

              - records, audio-cassettes, books, sketches etc.


on air:	      - for the duration of the exhibition a series of Kunstradio's

                weekly programs will (re-) broadcast historical material
from
                the 70ies.

              - a series of remixes of samples from the historical pieces are
              commissioned for:

                -- the opening performance of the exhibition as well as for
                   radio-broadcasts. and
                -- a forthcoming CD

              - the exhbition's selection of soundworks and

              - additional historical material as well as
