Within the Field

Within the Field proposes a curatorial structure through which works are encountered relationally rather than hierarchically, allowing images, forms and visual conditions to emerge across different artistic and institutional contexts.

Bringing together works by Adler & Moriarty artists alongside materials encountered within museum collections, the project explores how affinities, tensions and structural echoes recur across distinct practices, media and systems of display.

Meaning is generated not through direct comparison or equivalence, but through proximity, accumulation and contextual shift. Works operate as active elements within a broader visual field in which relationships unfold over time.

The project approaches exhibition-making as an adaptive relational system: capable of expanding across artists, institutions and spatial conditions while maintaining a consistent internal logic.

Structure
and Contexts.

Within the Field operates as a repeatable curatorial structure capable of adapting to different institutional, spatial and digital conditions while maintaining a consistent relational logic.

Current Contexts.

Online - Vienna

A museum-oriented manifestation positioning Adler & Moriarty artists in dialogue with works encountered across Vienna’s contemporary institutional landscape, allowing affinities, tensions and structural resonances to emerge across distinct contexts of display.

Works currently draw from encounters across institutions including Mumok, Belvedere 21 and the Albertina, forming a distributed visual field rather than a fixed comparative exhibition

Activated by works from: forthcoming
