Wirr singt das Volk is an artist’s book by Arno Auer published by Textem Verlag in connection with exhibition contexts.

The publication combines visual material, textual fragments and critical commentary, positioning itself between artist book, exhibition documentation and media reflection.

The project addresses contemporary public discourse, media imagery and political rhetoric. Drawing on journalistic language, literary references and documentary material, it examines how collective narratives, identity constructions and ideological positions are shaped through language and images.

Auer’s artistic practice often focuses on the interaction between media representation, social perception and institutional framing. In this context, the book functions as both an autonomous artistic work and a critical reflection on visual and textual culture within contemporary society.
