Two people stand in an entrance or stairwell area, looking up at the camera from below. A white sign with the brut logo hangs on the wall to the left. The overhead perspective emphasises the grey concrete floor, a metal plate on the ground and the plain architecture of the space.

Farewell words by Kira Kirsch & Flori Gugger

After eleven years, Kira Kirsch and Flori Gugger bid farewell to brut Wien – looking back on a time of departures, detours and movement: from Künstlerhaus out into the city, across more than one hundred venues and all the way to the temporary home of brut nordwest. A personal farewell text about places that disappear, a team that made so much possible, artists who were willing to take risks, and an institution that learned to feel at home in change.

Farewell messages from artists

To mark the farewell to brut nordwest, artists and companions have gathered personal messages, memories and thoughts. The result is a many-voiced farewell round – affectionate, witty, wistful and full of gratitude for shared years, shared spaces and unforgettable moments.

A personal look back by Ditta Rudle

A house lost, but not its courage: in her look back, Ditta Rudle traces brut Wien’s nomadic years – from 2017 to 2021, from its eviction from Künstlerhaus to more than ninety venues across the city. A text about wandering, inventiveness, unlikely stages, artists who rethink spaces, and an audience that followed brut all over Vienna.
