Visiting Critics Vienna by Verein K has been bringing international art critics to Vienna since 2018. Each year, the critics are recommended by nominators as well as AICA, the international association of art critics in Austria. They visit the exhibitions of the gallery festival Curated by in Vienna as well as the Steirischer Herbst in Graz. They also meet institutional and independent actors of the Austrian art scene, visiting artist studios as well as museums or independent spaces and each write an article about their experience. In the last days of the residency, they reflect on their experience and their vision of art criticism during a public event with a Q & A.
