Stadtwerkstatt is a cultural association in Linz/Austria, founded in 1979 by art-school dissidents. It is a communication platform for the local art scene and an experimental space for art and cultural development. Being a vibrant place for an independent national and international avantgarde underground art scene in the early years, over the years Stadtwerkstatt became an independent art-media center. The focus is on critical reflection of the conditions of society and fostering free cultural initiatives, mainly independent media-projects.
Stadtwerkstatt runs a cultural center downtown Linz. Hosting public access media structures that were built up throughout the last years in cooperation with other media activists like
Radio FRO (non commercial local radio station, 24 hrs a day – also broadcasting in the net) – and servus.at(internet service for art and culture in the region), a Cafe with a small club-stage, Cafe Strom and a hall for concerts and events (dates).
All of these stages (real, virtual and ether) are networked.
Stadtwerkstatt realizes art-projects that are prototype samples of the interdisciplinary work with main focus on public spaces, audience participation and technology.
