Käthe Schönle – Der wache Moment offers a compelling insight into the multifaceted work of Vienna-based artist Käthe Schönle. Moving between painting, drawing, collage, and screen printing, her works create emotionally charged visual worlds in which personal experience intertwines with broader social realities. Beauty and rupture, hope and uncertainty, intimacy and distance enter into a dynamic and evocative dialogue.

The first comprehensive monograph on the artist brings together numerous reproductions of artworks and exhibitions alongside essays by curators and writers Lisa Ortner-Kreil, Aline Lara Rezende, and Paula Watzl. Their contributions trace Schönle’s artistic practice as an open, intermedial mode of thinking shaped by hybridity, transformation, and a heightened sensitivity to the ambiguities of the present.

The monograph invites readers to experience art as a space of perception and reflection — layered, poetic, and strikingly relevant.

The monograph is also available with a signed edition:
