Parallel Vienna 2026

PARALLEL Vienna combines an art fair, a pop-up museum and a social hub. 130 exhibitors will be showcasing their work at the fairgrounds. The University of Applied Arts is hosting an exhibition by the Zink Art Association, which was founded by students in the Painting Department.
With the Angewandte’s invitation to Parallel Vienna, Zink now finds itself in a setting that was previously unfamiliar to the art association: the art fair. This opens up a further dimension within the already well-trodden tension between off-space and institution. Caught between belonging and standing on the sidelines, the art fair itself becomes the subject of investigation.
 
The Zink Art Award opens on 9 September 2026 at Parallel Vienna.
 
So Run.
The prize will be presented. Hand will meet hand. The camera will flash. The applause will rise and fall. And then the room will empty.
 
Featuring Gregor Divinzenz, Suzuka Hisamatsu, Luise Knecht, Daniela Kuich, Marcia Schmidt, Lucia Schwemer, Jesaja Trummer
