Céline Struger (1982, Klagenfurt) is an Austrian artist specializing in sculpture and site-specific art. Her work focuses on the recontextualization of places and their genius loci, exploring themes such as post-capitalism, ecology, and mythology. Céline frequently employs water as a sculptural medium, integrating found objects and self-made sculptures into her installations. In 2023, she was awarded a scholarship by the Austrian federal government to live and work in Paris. She has also participated in artist residencies in Germany, Canada, and South Korea. Recently, in 2024, Céline presented her work in a solo exhibition at Studio PRÁM in Prague, a duo show at VUNU in Bratislava, and a group exhibition at Picture Theory in New York. Her 2023 highlights include a solo exhibition at her gallery, Laetitia Gorsy, in Leipzig, Germany, as well as participation in the Artocène Chamonix art festival in France and the Dalseong Daegu Contemporary Art Festival in South Korea. Starting in October 2024, Céline will serve as Visiting Artist in the Social Design department at the University of Applied Arts Vienna. She currently lives and works in Vienna.

t's that time of the year again when we're excited to present what the artists of the QMA Artist Collective have been working on the last months. This year's exhibition will take place at Barvinskyi Gallery, a new gallery on Seilerstätte in the first district.

Come to the opening on Friday, November 29th from 6-9PM, Seilerstätte 30, 1010 Vienna. Find out more about the event on our socials and on our website soon!

“Donna Haraway’s “Staying with the Trouble: Making Kin in the Chthulucene” is the basic idea behind the exhibition. Haraway reminds us that we must face up to and take collective responsibility for humanity’s environmental crises. The book brings together several disciplines to question human exceptionalism and urges us to take collective action to change our habits that are responsible for climate change and its consequences. The stories in “The Camille Stories” imagine a world where reimagined relationships create new identities and communities. Chthulucene rejects deterministic narratives and instead offers a diverse and compassionate story that offers hope in the face of uncertainty.
The aim of this primarily Hungarian-Finnish-Austrian international exhibition is not to create a symposium on Nature Art, but to present the pressing issues of our time ( environmental as well as social ) through a broader spectrum of transmedia art.” (István Antal)

Céline Struger takes, amongst other artists, part in the group exhibition, PS at the Kunstraum KS Room in Feldbach, Styria. The group show is curated by Markus Waitschacher, with Catrin Bolt / Alfred Lenz / Alban Hajdinaj / Mirna Kutleša / Gianna Virginia Prein / Céline Struger

Céline Struger is, amongst other international artists, invited to the Artocène festival on the iconic site of Chamonix-Mont-Blanc that brings together architecture and contemporary art to create a dialogue with the alpine landscape, symbol of a fragile and moving nature.

The festival takes the form of an exhibition itinerary through the city. The exhibitions are an opportunity to discover works by international artists, established or emerging, as well as ephemeral architectures. The theme is approached through a 'contemporary art' angle and through an 'architecture' angle, the two being sometimes juxtaposed.

Céline Struger takes, amongst other international artists, part in the group exhibition, ENERGY at the new art venue in Koelwaterhal, Zwolle, the Netherlands. The artists have all been selected for their supremely edgy work which explores the determination and vulnerability associated with any quest for new pathways. ENERGY opens at the Koelwaterhal in Zwolle on 28 May, and will run until 17 September as part of the programme of Hanseatic Year 2023.

Céline Struger is an artist in residence at Cité Internationale des Arts, Paris from 1.5.2023 to 30.9.2023. The studio grant is provided by BMKOES, the Austrian Federal Ministry for Arts, Culture, Civil Service and Sport
