What will steirischer herbst look like in fifty years? What forms will festivals in general take? Will they only exist online, or will they be purely local? And what will art even be, how will artists work, what kind of society will they live in? The concluding event of steirischer herbst ʼ23 playfully asks such unfathomable questions in a game show–like setting: six guests pitch their visions of the future, to be commented on and judged by a jury of fictional yet plausible politicians.

With Thomas Geiger, Markus Gönitzer, Christoph Gurk, Rose-Anne Gush, Ulrike Haidacher, Ulrich Lenz, Ferdinand Nagele, Irina Nalis, Peter Pakesch, Jan Tappe, and Helene Thümmel
