Liz Haas
lizvlx aka Liz Haas is an Austrian artist and educator whose work lives at the chaotic crossroads of digital art, media actionism, and radical conceptual play. Known for bending rules, breaking systems, and occasionally confusing institutions, she’s been at the forefront of tech-savvy artmaking since the early days of net.art.
She studied commercial sciences and fine arts in Vienna, which might explain her love for numbers and noise. She’s held professorships at the Academy of Media Arts Cologne and HfG Offenbach, and now heads the Department of Digital Arts at the University of Applied Arts Vienna—a role she took on in the legendary footsteps of Peter Weibel.
lizvlx is autistic, and raising two equally autistic daughters.
Her recent projects include PMC Wagner Arts, Cerebelle, and biennial.ai, with commissions from institutions like the Whitney Museum of American Art and the Liverpool Biennial. Whether she's making NFTs, building media fictions, or short-circuiting corporate systems, her practice has been described as a Gesamtkunstwerk—a total artwork that folds in the personal, political, poetic, and absurd.
She splits her time between Vienna and St. Moritz, but her heart lies with trees and butterflies.
