Johanna
Bruckner

Johanna Bruckner (*1984, Vienna) is a visual artist dealing with topical issues such as the human within "digital capitalism”. Her works and performances are situated in a liminal space, transgressing the limits of language towards new human, post-human affective relationships, and corporealities in transition (Crush Pad Lava). She has been shown in major art biennales and institutions: 57th Venice Biennale, Haus der Kulturen der Welt (HKW, Berlin), KW Institute for Contemporary Art (KW, Berlin) and Kunstverein Hamburger Bahnhof (Berlin). She studied Fine Arts, Culture and Anthropology. She received numerous prizes and grants such as the Landis & Gyr Foundation Studio Grant (Whitechapel London, 2023–24) and teaches at Zurich University of the Arts. Group shows include The Whole Earth 2045, re:future lab, Berlin (2021) with video work Crush Pad Lava.
