Der österreichischen Filmavantgarde gelang es immer wieder,
internationale Reputation zu erlangen. In den 80er und 90er Jahren
konnte vor allem Dietmar Brehm eine Vielzahl an nationalen und
internationalen Preisen erlangen. Laut Peter Tscherkassky sind seine

Seine jungste Arbeit "Deanimated: The Invisible Ghost" ist eine Art Ubermalung eines klassischen amerikanischen Horrorstreifens: im Verlauf der Handlung werden zentrale Figuren des Geschehens mit digitalen Mitteln herauskopiert, sodass sich der Film sukzessive entvolkert.

Nauman's eerily intuitive way of creating sophisticated, intellectually angular art out of simple gestures-a 10-minute film called "Bouncing Two Balls between the Floor and Ceiling with Changing Rhythms," for example, in which the artist does just that-builds fascination out of repetition's blandness. This set of collected writings is essential for anyone wishing to explore the ideas behind Nauman's practices, even if it duplicates much of the recent Art + Performance volume (Johns Hopkins, 2003) on Nauman and is nearly twice as expensive.
