O.K.
Center for Contemporary Art Linz
Das O.K Centrum für Gegenwartskunst is an experimental
laboratory in the area of the arts, which is supported by
the public authorities. It is a place for the exhibition and
production of contemporary art and accompanies the realisation
of artistic works from their conception to their exhibition.
That way a mostly younger generation of internationally active
artists are offered a public platform and a laboratory situation
in one.
Accompanying symposia, mediation and live acts connect the
audience with the arts projects. As a documentation catalogues,
videos and CDs are produced.
Founded in the late 80ies O.K. positions itself, with its
flexible and process-oriented structure, as a place for discourse
and action.
The programme focus lies on multimedia and strictly space-related
group and individual projects, which frequently pick up topics
and questions concerning society. The infrastructure provided
by the premises allows the presentation of several different
exhibition productions at the same time; a collection has
deliberately not been built up.
O.K. is counselled by an artistic council functioning as a
curator, and which changes according to a rotation principle.
