Markus Schinwald
Born in 1973 in Salzbourg, Autriche
Markus Schinwald’s installations, videos, sculptures, and performances explore the question of the body and its interaction with space. By blurring the boundaries between the strange and the familiar, revealing a bourgeois world with its share of physical deviances and prosthetic accessories, the works shake up conventions, identities, and sexualities. The notions of desire, voyeurism, and fetishism, expressed both psychologically and performatively, forcefully alienate the viewer.
Born in 1973 in Salzburg (Austria), Markus Schinwald studied at the Humboldt Universität in Berlin (Germany) and at the Hochschule für Gestaltung in Linz (Austria). He lives and works between Vienna and New York.
