Toni Kleinlercher
*1958 in Schwaz/Austria.
Currently living and working in Vienna.
Since 1985 publications, readings, lectures, solo exhibitions as well as
participations in exhibitions and projects in public spaces.
Based on various investigations using coding and rewriting techniques as a poet
and visual artist, Kleinlercher's thematic explorations range from
investigations on landscapes and literary condensations to meditative
series of works that ultimately deal with the question of dissolution
through equality in emptiness.
