Constanze Ruhm is Professor of Art and Digital Media at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna. Her productions include and intersect the fields of installation, film / video, text / publications, curatorial projects and websites. Her work focuses on contemporary forms of an art practice established around the relation of cinema and New Media with an emphasis on notions of identity, representation and (feminist) film theory.
