the work of Cosima von<br />
Bonin, Kai Althoff and Georg Herold<br />

Hamburg artist collective Akademie<br />

André Butzer, now an artist in the<br />
gallery. Representatives from the Viennese<br />
art scene include Marko Lulic,<br />
Barbara Mungenast and Hans Weigand.<br />
Schleifmühlgasse 1a, (585 25 80)<br />

�� Engholm Engelhorn Galerie —— With<br />
lots of neon and concrete, one of the<br />
coolest of the galleries from the last<br />
decade. The logo art by German artist<br />
Daniel Pflumm comes across quite attractively<br />
in this ambiance. Austrian<br />
artists like Hans Schabus and Mischa<br />
Stroj exhibit their installations here,<br />
other artists on the roster include<br />
Monika Baer, Angela Bulloch and<br />
Björn Dahlem.<br />
Schleifmühlgasse 3, (585 73 37)<br />

�� Galerie Georg Kargl —— Georg Kargl<br />
combines a passion for art with entre-<br />
preneurship. His artist roster spans<br />
local matadors like the artist couple<br />
Muntean/Rosenblum, to Markus<br />
Schinwald, to American artist Mark<br />
Dion. Adjacent in the Kargl Box, designed<br />
by American artist Richard<br />
<strong>Art</strong>schwager, young artists like Carol<br />
Bove or Andreas Fogarasi are presented,<br />
or artists are rediscovered, like the 60’s<br />

GALLERY DISTRICT Seilerstätte and its<br />
neighbourhood —— A high concentration<br />
of galleries can also be found in the very<br />
centre, in the 1st district, around the<br />
Saint Stefan’s Cathedral, not far away<br />
from the MAK. The neighbourhood<br />
contains lovely Viennese coffee houses<br />
like the Prückl, Korb or Engländer (see<br />
»cafés«)<br />
U1, U3, bus 1A: Stubentor or Stephansplatz<br />
All galleries usually open Tue-Fri 11 am to 6<br />
pm, Sat 11 am to 4 pm (or by appointment)<br />
�� Charim Galerie Wien —— The Charim<br />
Galerie lies in the inner courtyard of a<br />
typical Viennese Baroque house and is<br />
always a place for new discoveries, and<br />
is, on this account, always full to capacity<br />
at openings. The gallery shows established<br />
figures like Valie Export or<br />
Christoph Schlingensief as well as promising<br />
newcomers, like the Viennese<br />
photo-artist Markus Krottendorfer or<br />
the Vienna-based artist from St. Petersburg<br />
Anna Ceeh. Only open until 2 pm<br />
on Saturday!<br />
Dorotheergasse 12/1, (512 09 15)<br />
