Alexis Dworsky (born May 14, 1976, in Freising) is a conceptual artist, cultural scientist and professor at the University of Arts Linz. He performs artistic research that combines practical and theoretical approaches.

Biography

Dworsky initially studied landscape architecture at the Technical University of Munich, followed by studies at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich with Res Ingold. Dworsky received his doctorate in 2011 from Bazon Brock in aesthetics at the University of Wuppertal on the cultural history of the dinosaur. From 2001 to 2007, Dworsky was a curator in the art space Lothringer13, Munich. From 2012 to 2018, he was a teacher at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich. Alexis Dworsky is the professor of media design at the University of Arts Linz since 2021.

Dworsky works as a freelance artist, cultural scientist and curator. In particular, Dworsky works in and about the public space. A peculiarity of Dworsky’s approach is also to regard the digital-media space as a public space.

Curation and research

The boundary between art, research and curation is becoming increasingly blurred in Dworsky's work, for example because he also shows works by other artists at exhibitions, or invites them to events and lectures, researches the background, writes scientific texts about them and also publishes them. For example, Alexis Dworsky curated an exhibition by Forensic Architecture.
