In the run-up to the exhibition LIEBEN, the TAXISPALAIS invited the members of Innsbruck Contemporary to present their institution or gallery through “films on loving”. The selected films and film excerpts not only showed in a variety of ways how the complex topic of loving can be addresed in film, but also the diversity of Innsbruck's art and architecture scene. In addition to cinema classics and rarely seen art films, the audience was also able to get to know the people behind the institutions/galleries.

In 2011, the international performance festival performIC took place under the motto Trial & Error. Trial and error is an approach to problem-solving whereby permissible possibilities are tried out one after another until the desired solution is found. Improvisation or trying things out without any calculated prospect of success are not only parameters of some artistic practice; they also characterise a method that is applied more and more in politics and the financial sector in order to master the financial and social crises. performIC 2011 Trial & Error examined the basic mood in present day society, which is being generated by such political and financial economic experiments and mistakes.

After the successful premiere in 2009, INNSBRUCK CONTEMPORARY once again, in the summer of 2010, staged a small performance festival in Innsbruck. Over two days, when the football World Cup took a break, i.e. on June 30 and July 1, young performance art took centre stage at Künstler:innenhaus Büchsenhausen. In addition, a retrospect on the 1970s, the second half of which decade brought numerous highlights of performance art to Innsbruck, was on display.

With contributions by: Marc Aschenbrenner, CIE. AGAR AGAR (Annette Sonnewend & Michael Strasser), Christian Falsnaes, Michael Fliri, Ana Hoffner, Krõõt Juurak & Ralo Mayer, Jürgen Klauke, Louise MacDonald, Asumi (Omas Liebling/Tyrolean Dynamite) & Monolulu.

From 26 to 28 June, INNSBRUCK CONTEMPORARY, on the occasion of the Innsbruck Kultursommer 2009, organised a three-day festival, entitled performIC, on the subject of “performative interventions.” The projects and live performances – by artistic, architectonic and performative means – dealt with the question of public space as well as specific interior spaces. The individual contributions covered the wide spectrum of the performative arts and made use of the tools of sculpture, installation, photography, film, and narration.
