Dr. Hannah Bruckmüller is an art historian, writer, and editor specialized in conceptual art, literature, and publications. Her interdisciplinary research focuses on art and literature, notions of writing and reading, and draws upon a theoretical corpus based on feminist writings and theory.

Hannah’s research examines the thresholds of artistic practices, text, and literature. In her monograph “Clije cli-je. gedruckt, gelesen und gedreht. Zu den Wörtern von Marcel Broodthaers” (sonderzahl 2023) she introduced a feminist reading of marginalized aspects of Broodthaers’ publishing practice. Aligning with feminist theories, the book presents a meta-reflexive approach to writing, analzying rhetorical structures, sophistical practices, and historiographical mechanisms. Hannah’s Post-Doc project “Father Figures” focuses on notions of fatherhood in artistic practices of the 1960s and 1970s.

Hannah publishes essays, reviews, and texts in international magazines and journals, such as TOHU Magazine, Counter Signals, Platform, and Oxford Art Journal.

Hannah speaks at conferences, contributes to festivals and symposia, gives opening speeches, interviews artists, contributes to round-tables and moderates artist-talks. 

Hannah collaborates with Noa Ginzburg and Michal B. Ron in the CatChat Collective. Drawing upon feminist theories and art practices, “we have developed our theoretico-artistic practice to approach alphabets, texts, and translatability by attending to the abundant and queer manifolds of language.”  

Hannah is an experienced editing and writing consultant for texts, anthologies, academic writings, applications, and theses. She has co-founded and co-edited the online magazine all-over (2010–2019), and proof-read and edited various publications, ranging from theses to architectural guides and the Austrian Film Gender Report (2021).
