Since January 2011 the artists have been posting drawings and art-objects in progress to each other, adding to them and returning them via courier. Artworks travel back and forth between Johannesburg and Vienna, evolving, until both artists consider these collaborative works finished.
The courier exchange is made possible by the support of the Austrian Ministry for European and International Affairs and the Austrian Embassy in Pretoria and their diplomatic courier service.
The project and collaboration between the artists grew out of an artistic project during the European- (2008), Confederation- (2009) and World Cup (2010). 2011 saw the presentation of the 'Courier-Dialogue' artworks in Vienna and in 2012 the final works are presented in Johannesburg.
Walter Stach will also be presenting some of his own works in the Nirox exhibition space.
