Hans Schabus

+ Institut d’art contemporain

Born in 1970 in Watschig in Austria, Hans Schabus lives and works in Vienna. Hans Schabus performs radical acts—digging, filling, encircling, cutting—to deconstruct and restructure space, changing our references and movements.
His works generally refer to his immediate environment and the materials that form it. The artist’s studio appears as the matrix of his work, where his life and thinking are spatialised, the first place in which the relation between mental space and physical space is materialised.
