Karl Neubacher is one of the pioneers of avant-garde and conceptual art in Graz, Austria, along with Richard Kriesche and Peter Gerwin Hoffman. These 1960s and 1970s protagonists are showing themselves to be more and more relevant not only within Austria, but far beyond the narrow confines of provincialism.
Neubacher, who in 1969 joined the producers' group pool, was mostly active as a graphic designer. As such he completed significant works for the avant-garde festival steirischer herbst, the art magazine pfirsich, the shoe company HUMANIC and others. His posters, which were always based on artistic concepts, were internationally renowned and awarded (e.g. Graphic Design Excellence Award, icograda). The overall picture of applied arts and austere forms of fine arts created a unique tension that defined Neubacher's artistic practice.
Neubacher's main medium was photography, but another (and no less important) medium was his own body, which he used in performances and documented with photography and film: he himself turned into a 'public art figure.' The short films created in the 1970s turned Neubacher into one of the hitherto undiscovered avant-garde film-makers. They are an expression of the intense struggle for the validity of artistic expression waged between avant-garde radicalism and realism.
