The ONE MILLION - Edition Meduses Nice refers to the swarms of jellyfish that have been spearing for several years, not only on the beaches of Côte d’Azur but also on the shores of the warming oceans worldwide. Living cell formations dissolve from their dying core and rise to quickly grow into new jellyfish, in the eternal cycle of which the edition is a part of.

Edition Meduses Nice is available at www.one-million.shop

BE SILENT TOUCH LOOK SWALLOW is a 384-page artist book that explores the utopian potential of the analogue-digital project ONE MILLION. 706 AI images were generated using Midjourney prompts based on numerous conversations with myself and Michal Kosakowski about the nature of physical existence in the world at the beginning of digitalization. The words engraved on the individual vessels comes from text written by philosopher Wilhelm Vossenkuhl and art historian Gerald Zagler.

In 2022, director Prof. Dr. Matthias Wemhoff invited me to exhibit DER PORZELLAN CODE in Neues Museum - museum of prehistory and early history. During that time I created a few marker pen drawings that unite humans, animals, plants and vessels in the lines. The drawings combines the forms and stories of prehistoric cultures – a humanity at the beginning of its development, like children. The screenprint edition was created based on the marker pen drawing “Childhood of Humankind I”.

The screenprint will be part of my solo presentation with at Art Düsseldorf 2024

“In prehistory, (I) noted, vessels play a very important role: “The developmental stage of a society can be read from their form.” The marker drawings were created quickly and almost unconsciously: “My brain was switched off and suddenly I knocked out these drawings.” They reflect the status of prehistoric cultures - a humanity at the beginning of its development, like children.” - excerpt from Ein Leben lang runterlaufen, by Nina Schedlmayer in Morgen Magazine, August 2023.

“ULI AIGNER’S CONCRETE ONE MILLION UTOPIA - Strictly speaking, there can be no such thing as a “concrete utopia” because utopias have no place in visible, concrete reality, but only in ideal theories of politics and in fantastic designs of a paradisiacal world.” - excerpt from essay by philosopher Wilhelm Vossenkuhl.

Text and AI generated images from the book BE SILENT TOUCH LOOK SWALLOW. Individual images are also available for purchase as C-Print on Dibond, 40x40cm. Dm if interested.

The Edition Albin Müller is now available as set at www.one-million.shop

The unique porcelain pieces of the Edition Albin Müller formally refer to an Art Nouveau toothbrush cup, which the architect Alvin Müller himself designed for the a clinic for internal medicine and psychotherapy in Braunlage in the Harz Mountains.

The cup is intended for daily use by all guests and visitors of the sanatorium, and now the bowl and plate can be added to your personal collection.

I am proud to announce that I have developed a special tea set for the in Vienna.

Margarete Schütte-Lihotzky was known to hold tea-hours in the late afternoon on a near-daily basis. When guests visited her, black tea was served in Turkish glasses. This wonderful tradition is now being reintroduced.

The new edition will be a part of the teatimes at the MSL center that offer an individual tour of the flat, various teas and biscuits, a joint discussion, and a short reading from Margarete Schütte-Lihotzky’s texts. More information can be found at www.schuette-lihotzky.at
