With “roger ballen.! drawing meets photography”, we turn our lens on one of contemporary photography’s most influential figures. Since the late 1990s, drawing has played an increasingly transformative role in Roger Ballen’s photographic language.

On view from 7 November, over 120 works spanning 1998 to 2025 offer a glimpse into Ballen’s unique visual world, where interior spaces, animals, fragments of the human body, doll parts, drawings and objects serve as cast members. With connections to Art Brut and a deep interest in the subconscious, this distinctive aesthetic has become known as the “Ballenesque.”

The exhibition extends beyond the photographic frame: a screening room, found objects and sculptural interventions structure the exhibition, while a site-specific installation connects the gallery space with the loft.

Join us for the opening on 6 November at 19:00, featuring a lecture by Roger Ballen. More details coming soon.

This exhibition was created in collaboration with museum gugging and curated by Nina Ansperger, Artistic and Scientific Lead, museum gugging. It was co-curated by Marie-Luise Mayer, Exhibitions Manager at Fotografiska Berlin, in collaboration with the artist.

After living in Vienna for over a year, I’m still amazed by how I keep rediscovering this region. I’m always finding some new museum somewhere nearby in a small town, and its collection never fails to impress me. Here I am visiting the Gugging Museum. My outfit might not have been exactly museum-appropriate, but it was summer, and besides the museum visit, I had a 15-kilometer hike ahead of me.
But... it was worth it.

COMING SOON IN RAW VISION ISSUE 128...

For years, two of the most celebrated Gugging Artists, August Walla and Johann Hauser, lived and created side by side – but very much apart.

In 2026, Johann Hauser would have celebrated his 100th birthday and August Walla his 90th. Their milestone anniversaries also coincide with the 20th anniversary of Museum Gugging.

In the upcoming Raw Vision Issue 128, we explore the remarkable lives and creative worlds of these two internationally acclaimed artists. Their work would attract artists and admirers from around the world, while Gugging itself became a place of pilgrimage for figures including Keith Haring, Georg Baselitz, Salvador Dalí and David Bowie.

Discover the full story in Raw Vision Issue 128, shipping to subscribers soon and available to pre-order now.

💙 Sterne, Mond, Herzen und Sonnen gehören zu den wiederkehrenden Motiven im Werk von Johann Hauser. Schon in seinen frühen Zeichnungen entwickelte der 1926 in Bratislava geborene Künstler jene Bildsprache, die sein Schaffen bis heute unverwechselbar macht.

Als einer der bedeutendsten Vertreter der Art Brut schuf Johann Hauser Werke voller Symbolkraft und persönlicher Zeichenwelten. Genau diese besondere Bildsprache faszinierte auch Arnulf Rainer, der sich intensiv mit Hausers Kunst auseinandersetzte.

📍 Zu sehen in der Ausstellung „Arnulf Rainer & Art Brut“.
⏳ Nur noch bis 04.10.2026.

💙 Stars, the moon, hearts, and suns are among the recurring motifs in Johann Hauser’s work. Even in his early drawings, the artist—born in Bratislava in 1926—developed the visual language that continues to make his work unmistakable to this day.

As one of the most significant representatives of Art Brut, Johann Hauser created works full of symbolic power and personal visual universes. It was precisely this unique visual language that also fascinated Arnulf Rainer, who engaged deeply with Hauser’s art.

📍 On view in the exhibition “Arnulf Rainer & Art Brut.”
⏳ Only through October 4, 2026.

Just outside Vienna, the Museum Gugging has a collection that is far larger and more diverse than I expected. This remarkable place grew out of psychiatrist Leo Navratil’s engagement with the drawings of his patients and later became an important centre for Art Brut.

We had a wonderfully knowledgeable and engaging guide who introduced us to the artists, their work and the history of the place with so much insight and genuine enthusiasm.

There is an incredible amount to discover: idiosyncratic visual worlds, a lots of animals, figures, writing, tiny details, and works that immediately draw you in. Definitely a place to allow much more time for than you might initially think.
