Stillleben from VHS (2025) I just put a selection of images on my site you can check them out. You will find them as a supplement to the book Zentren geistiger Stadterweiterung by Carina Sacher and Lukas Veijnik, published by Album Verlag last autumn.

Nachdem sich die Ausstellung über diese spezielle Zentrifuge namens Tagada im @westlichtvienna schön langsam ihrem Ende zuneigt, dachte ich, es wär eine gute Idee, noch einen letzten Abend dort zu verbringen. Das mach ich morgen zwischen 18.30 und 21h. Wenn ihr also zu den ProtagonistInnen zählt, oder einfach so eine Führung haben wollt, kommt doch vorbei. Bücher gibt es auch wieder, die waren zwischenzeitlich vergriffen. Bis dann!

💥ARTIST GUIDED TOUR & BOOK SIGNING with Florian Rainer💥 📍THU | 16.10.2025 | 6 pm Fotomuseum WestLicht Westbahnstraße 40, 1070 Vienna ✨Admission with valid exhibition ticket 📩Please register with: [email protected] Tagada is not just one of the most iconic rides at Vienna’s Prater amusement park – for teenagers on the cusp of adulthood, it’s a rite of passage and a place of retreat. It’s where they meet up, smoke, flirt, make out, perform, test their limits, and measure themselves against others. On the spinning disc, they experience fleeting moments of weightlessness – both literally and figuratively. In the summer of 2020, during the COVID pandemic, Florian Rainer spent time with these teenagers, capturing their world in a photographic coming-of-age story. The project is also being published as a book of the same name by Edition @fotohof , to accompany the exhibition. Experience the exhibition >>TAGADA<< together with Florian Rainer on a guided tour! Afterwards, the artist will be signing copies of his of his latest book. Join us – we’re looking forward to seeing you there! An event in collaboration with @foto_wien . 📷Florian Rainer, from the series >>Tagada<<, 2020 © Florian Rainer #Tagada #FlorianRainer #WienerPrater #WestLichtVienna #WestLicht

Yesterday I got the news that Jana died. I am happy that I got to know that lovely punk at heart 5 years ago and am grateful for the times we shared. The hood won‘t be the same without her. I am glad that section.a hung her picture all over Carinthia last year. I know that she loved it. #ueberdasland
