The “Wiener Null” is the reference height from which elevations in Vienna are measured. It is based on the mean water level of the Danube Canal, lies at 152.68 m above the Adriatic Sea, and was defined in the late nineteenth century: a zero point from which everything else is measured.

Under this title, and the editions presents a new installation by Hans Schabus, composed of the parts of a new sculptural edition. At the same time, the exhibition offers a view of two decades of his work through a selection of artist books, catalogues and editions.

It becomes apparent how themes, materials and questions carry forward over the years, and how the published and printed graphic work holds its own place alongside sculpture and installation. 

Hans Schabus (born 1970 in Watschig, Austria) is an internationally acclaimed artist known for his large-scale installations and sculptures. He represented Austria at the 51st Venice Biennale in 2005, and his work has also been shown at manifesta 4 in Frankfurt am Main (2002), the 16th Biennale of Sydney (2008), the 6th Berlin Biennale (2010) and 17th Biennale du Lyon (2025).
Recent institutional exhibitions include the Kunsthalle Wien, Vienna, Schirn Kunsthalle, Frankfurt; Palais de Tokyo, Paris; Kunsthalle Darmstadt; Salzburger Kunstverein; mumok, Vienna; and Museum Boijmans van Beuningen, Rotterdam. Since 2014, he has been the professor in the Department of Sculpture and Space at the University of Applied Arts Vienna. Hans Schabus is represented by Galleria ZERO... in Milan.
