Life

Josef Dabernig studied from 1975 to 1981 at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna with Ferdinand Welz (medal art and small sculptures) and Joannis Avramidis (sculpture). After graduation, his sculptural term gradually dissolved in various media. Dabernig has been producing short films on a regular basis since 1996 and is present with them both in the festival cinema and in exhibitions. His first monograph, entitled Dabernig Josef: Film, Photo, Text, Object, Construction, addresses the artist's vocabulary of expression on the basis of conceptual interaction within media diversity. Josef Dabernig's work has been at exhibitions such as Manifesta 3, Ljubljana , the Biennale di Venezia (2001 and 2003) , but also at the renowned film festivals in Locarno (2002 and 2008) , London (2009) , Mar del Plata (2007) , Melbourne (2001), Oberhausen ( 2006 , 2009 and 2014 ), Rotterdam (2000) and Toronto (2006 and 2009) .
