Artwork #7: Techne 1957-1999

Crafted by Martin Reiter 1995, this work has been stranded in Vienna for quite a while ... (i've been storing it for 6 years now).

So, if we could find a fit new owner - who must be ready to bid 1.500,- or more - this would be great!

Martin Reiter is currently managing, or "chaospiloting" Kunsthaus Tacheles in Berlin. He's involved in "old and new media" art since the 1980s.

Artwork #6: Foto-Blowup on Acrylic Glass

This one's called Mondhof über Fünfhaus (Moon Halo over Fünfhaus) and was assembled 2003. The photo was shot a little sooner in Fünfhaus, the district of Vienna i previously lived in.

Like all my blow-ups on acrylic glass it looks beuatiful in front of a weak light-source.

I'll let it go for €10,- or more.

This is how it works: an item is posted and then we wait for the first bid.
Bidding can be done via comment or e-mail to office@shifz.org.
Each bid will be published and then we'll wait for two weeks.
If and when for two weeks no higher bid comes in, the artwork is sold.
