ABOUT THE ARTIST
Marlene Heidinger (*1996, Vienna) is a painter, curator and film maker based in Vienna, Austria. She studied painting and experimental animation under Judith Eisler at the University of Applied Arts Vienna and at the École de Communication Visuelle in Paris. In June 2024 she received her master’s degree in curatorial studies (“/ecm”) at the University of Applied Arts in Vienna. Her masters thesis „When artists curate: From the studio to the exhibition space“ investigated curatorial strategies implemented by artists with the example of the artist‘s studio space as exhibition space and expanded on her interest in curating as artistic practice.
​
Marlene is a founding member of the curatorial collective SICC, that has a strong focus on presenting sequential art.
