About FLUSS
Since 1989 FLUSS has been committed to presenting, exploring and questioning the manifold meanings and relationships within the artistic medium of photography. By organizing exhibitions, public talks, workshops and not least the annual summer school “Weinviertler Fotowochen”, but also through numerous cooperation projects with European partner organizations and presentations on international festivals, FLUSS has established a reputation that extends well beyond national borders. The continuation of the long-standing programme series (Strategies in the rural area, visions of media art, Weinviertler Fotowochen), thematic group exhibitions, new lectures and discussions called TIEFENSCHÄRFEN, workshops and school projects form the building blocks of our programme.
