Since 1992 Klub Zwei – Simone Bader and Jo Schmeiser – has been working at the interface of art, film

and new media. Our main fields of interest are socio-political issues and how they are portrayed.

Simone Bader teaches at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna. Jo Schmeiser was born in 1967 in Graz and works as a freelance graphic designer, editor and author in Vienna. From 2014 to 2016 she was teaching at TRANSART at the University of Applied Arts, Vienna, where both graduated.
