Georg Petermichl (*1980 in Linz) is an Austrian photographer whose conceptual practice is shaped by everyday observations, personal archives, and social structures. He uses photography to reflect social reality—not only in images, but also through objects, films, and installations. In his exhibition "Universal thoughts: least common multiple" at Francisco Carolinum, Petermichl focuses on photography as a social and psychological instrument. Starting from the smallest personal cosmos—his own family—he expands his perspective to larger contexts such as mass tourism, collective desires, and shared cultural practices. The exhibition explores what drives people, how memories are formed, and what role photographs play as carriers of identity, projection, and social reality. More about the exhibition
