Leander Schönweger
Donation to mumok, Vienna
In 2017, Phileas co-produced a new installation by artist Leander Schönweger for his participation in the 15th Istanbul Biennial, curated by artists Elmgreen & Dragset. Phileas extended its support to include the purchase of the installation, and a second work, to donate to the collection of mumok, Vienna. This was the sixth in a series of donations made by Phileas to mumok during the course of the year 2017.
