His honors include the Berlin Literature Prize and the Georg Büchner Prize. He is a lecturer in dramaturgy at the Bern University of the Arts and lives in Zurich.

Vernissage

In a further development of his "Feiertage" project, recognised Swiss video artist Mats Staub invites 50 students to answer questions about their own CVs while being filmed: personal questions that can be answered with a single number. The videos will be shown on the screens in SQUARE and/or on extra screens. The project was first launched in 2022 and will be repeated a year later - with the same 50 people - to find out what can happen in an academic year, how students develop and how a CV can be presented in a completely different way.
