If you could install your art absolutely anywhere, where would that be?
I would put all my works together in some kind of installation comparing to the idea of "Russischer Hängung" on the middle of a eastsided wall at one of the "Bunker im Augarten" at Vienna,

If you weren´t an artist, what would you be doing?
I would work as a curator, or as a gallerist, in any case I would work with art
