Timo Huber, a founding member of the architecture groups Zünd-Up and Salz der Erde, is fascinated by the seductive potential and unsettling force of everyday imagery. In his photomontages, he combines and defamiliarizes found pictures using analog techniques, editing visual material with his scalpel to create surprisingly new and ever-topical narrative compositions. As in many of his drawings, the result is various layers of meaning, each of which gives rise to new realities, unexpected connections, and complex statements with personal or topical references to everyday life. The publication UNEXPECTED CONNECTIONS Montages and Drawings shows a cross section of Huber's recent works and is accompanied by a comprehensive essay by Eva Badura-Triska. Timo Huber, born in 1944 in Freistadt, Upper Austria, lives as an architect and artist in Vienna. He studied architecture at the Vienna University of Technology and worked on actions and films by the Vienna Actionists in 1967. His own artistic works as well as those of Zünd-Up and Salz der Erde have been shown in numerous exhibitions in Austria and abroad and are in important collections (Albertina, Vienna; Wien Museum; mumok - Museum moderner Kunst Stiftung Ludwig Vienna; Landesgalerie Linz; Lentos Kunstmuseum Linz; Centre Pompidou, Paris; Frac Centre-Val de Loire, Orléans; Victoria and Albert Museum, London).
