Disco Vitae - Art Installation
1,5x3m, acrylic paint, spray paint on canvas, light and sound installation
Sebastian Schager, Bud Art Room, Parallel Vienna Art Fair, 2019
In association with @budweiserusa and @wardanetwork
Artist statement
King or king regnant, rēx, rājan, ríg, reiks – however you call it is the title given to a male monarch in a variety of contexts. The Kingdom is established through power, brute force and all means needed to stay in power. Sebastian Schagers interpretation of the topic is separated into three 1,5x1m (Toal of 1,5x3m) canvases painted in highly detailed stencil technique. Each part of the painting provokes the audience in a different way. The center piece for example depicts a mutilated greek goddess with a sword, kind of meshed up the King Arthur legend. Greek style in art history was often misused, especially in neo classicism to refer to terms justice or fairness in politics. As a female part in a world dominated by men stands as a symbol poking into gender issues. The right side of the right panel depicts the kings armory borrowed from an Italian pilaster in roman style with military trophies from a tomb of a war hero. The huge battle scene from an antique sarcophagus covering almost three-fourths of the Painting shows a battle scene between Romans and Barbarians – Remember, barbarians can be any member of a nation judged by some to be less civilized or orderly ...so all the others! On the left the self-proclamed King himself on his holden throne totally shot up – an elbow strike for all hyper ethic kings out there.
In general the piece including the title “Disco Vitae" what means as much as "I live to learn" might be a psychogram of mankind described through the eyes of an artist including a good amount of question-marks and a few punches to the stomach. The sound and light installation, the Friedrich like arranged "broken ice-sheet" lockers as well as the shards from beer bottles with Damocles Sword fuse to a researching into vertigo. .

Great project together with Europäische Volksschule Goldschlagstraße for the city of Vienna. I worked with third grade kids on this project about #climatechange and #worldwidepollution. I was really happy to see the next generation having an idea of what goes wrong on this planet. it was an inspiring time with the youngest and a great experience to paint with them. Here is a real short glimpse in the process on the wall but i will post another one showing their great drawings translated to small stencils as well! thx to the kids ❤️ The bigger stencils i developed are: „Zephyr, Flora and Toxic Waste“ & „Posidon with Plastic Bottle“ #art #urbanart #nextgeneration #streetart #stencilart #stencil #poseidon #toxicwaste #zephyrandflora

When you #artcollector asks you for a fun commission: „please #spraypaint our original #louisvuitton bag and please add these #soccerlogo s... - we trust you, just go for it“ At least it was fun for me! ...Still I am wondering if they like it as much as I do...😅✌️ @louisvuitton ...Whats up?

In the Olympian scheme, Zeus, husband of Hera is also father of Leto's twins, Asimo and Diana, which Leto conceived after her hidden beauty accidentally caught the eyes of Zeus. Leto's mythic role is to search for a place where she could give birth because Hera in her jealousy wont let her and caused all lands to shun her. Asimo replaces Apollo in my updated 2019 version of the Greek mythological theme. Apollo recognized as a god of archery, music and dance, truth and prophecy, healing and diseases, the Sun and light and poetry... Lets see what robots will bring upon us!
Thx to 19th century neo classizist William Henry Rinehart who carved the marble I used as a starting point. Also thx to Honda for making Asimo walk upright like a human. :) #stencil #hera #leto #letona #diana #artemis #apllo #apollon #Asimo #honda #greekmythology #stencil #streetart #sebastianschager #whrinehart #urbanart
