Petra von Kazinyan

Petra von Kazinyan lives and works in Vienna. In her paintings and objects, she explores themes of the boundary between abstraction and figuration, as well as identity in a globalized and post-digital world.
Her distinctive visual language combines precise brushwork with conceptual depth, inviting the viewer into a lyrical, enigmatic space where form and meaning are in a permanent state of tension.
The works of the artist and philosophy graduate have already been shown in numerous exhibitions at home and abroad, most recently during Seoul Art Week 2025, in solo exhibitions as part of the Venice Biennale in 2022 and 2019, in group exhibitions in Vienna, Berlin, London and Paris, as well as at art fairs such as Art Austria, Art Salzburg and Art Beijing.
