Volume 1 zeigt drei Videos der russischen Gruppe PROVMYZA: „Confusion“ (2010), „Despair“ (2009) und „Fugue“ (2005). „Confusion“ zeigt junge Leute auf einer Party. Ihre Stimmung schwankt zwischen Neugierde, Konfusion und Angst und verdeutlicht, wie groß die Konflikte zwischen ihnen sind. In „Despair“ und „Fugue“ sind Menschen auf unterschiedliche Art mit der Natur konfrontiert. Realität und Fiktion verschwimmen miteinander und scheinbar poetische Momente lassen nichts von zukünftigen Bedrohungen ahnen.

Die beiden KünstlerInnen Galina Myznikova und Sergey Provorov waren 1998 als PROVMYZA  „Artists in Residence“ von KKA in Wien. 2006 und 2009 zeigten sie ihre Arbeiten in der Galerie Artpoint. Mittlerweile zählt das KünstlerInnenduo zu den wichtigsten VertreterInnen russischer Kunst und erlangte international große Aufmerksamkeit, beispielsweise 2005 bei der 51. Biennale von Venedig.

Volume 2 is including five videos by the romanian artist Patricia Teodorescu. Her videos have been exhibited in important galleries and museums such as the Tate Modern, Essl or The Kitchen (N.Y.). In January 2011 Teodorescu participated in the exhibtion "Statement: I Advocate Feminsim" at Galerie ArtPoint.

Teodorescu`s videos comprise, on the one hand, short reflections on a creative mood, constructing a space for understanding movement or exploring abstract concepts through dynamic use of the body or body parts, and, on the other hand, documentary-type surveys of contemporary social issues.
