Urban Rural Vacany

The photographers Ulrike Myrzik and Stefan Oláh introduce their exhibition projects in short presentations. They are followed by a panel of guest experts who discuss changes in consumer behaviour and the impact of these changes on villages and towns and the erosion of the centres of local communities associated with them, as well as the Disneyfication of town centres. Are there ways to counteract these processes of erosion?

Short presentations by:

Ulrike Myrzik (Munich) on the project ‘Landfluchten’
Stefan Oláh (Vienna) on the project ’26 Wiener Tankstellen’
