The exhibition, curated by Jürgen Tabor, brings together key works by Koller from the Generali Foundation collection, including his legendary long-term project U.F.O.-naut J.K. (U.F.O.). For this project, he created a symbolically charged self-portrait every year for more than 35 years. Koller also became known for his special artistic actions – so-called anti-happenings. These took place in both private and public spaces and were usually entertaining and often ironic. In addition to the exhibition, a dedicated reading and media lounge invites visitors to browse, read and linger. It offers selected literature from the libraries of the Museum der Moderne Salzburg and the Generali Foundation. Visitors also have access to the media library from their collection, which contains around 500 films and videos.
