Art as Currency, currency as art: The Gibling started in 2012 and is a community currency, similar to a regional currency. On the other hand, the Gibling is an art project on its own. Each year the banknotes are designed by a new artist. There is an art edition including a 1,2,5 and 500 note. In the interplay of art and currency the Gibling is building an own art collection.

Information as well as a list of all partners and exchange offices can be found on punkaustria.at.

The twelfth issue of Gibling shows a series of portraits of undercover people and the deconstruction of their spaces. The images thematise excessive demands, isolation as well as the meaning of community in a society marked by individualism and alienation. The exhausted human being takes the place of historical or cultural representation on banknotes and thus becomes a landmark and symbol itself. In the ruins of a past order, questions arise about new forms of relationship and cohesion.

The new Gibling is valid from 15 June 2023.

10 years after the founding of the Gibling, the community currency is facing monetary reform!

The 11th edition of the Gibling was designed this year by Franz XAVER as NFP. This means 'Non Fungible Picture' and non-interchangeable, unique pictures. As serial pictures, images of flames, clouds and water surfaces are the starting point for the 11th edition. Each picture is signed by the serial number and a checksum with the metatags of the next picture. In the process, every single 1, 2 and 5 note of the community currency becomes unique.

How to activate NFPs

The new Gibling is valid from 15 June 2022

Community Currency: The Gibling is a community currency, which was founded by the Stadtwerkstatt Linz in 2012. The Gibling is a currency with Gibling partners, exchange offices, value creation and money destruction. At the same time the Gibling questiones the economic system money as a currency of art. In addition to economic crises and speculative transactions, the topic is given additional impetus by intentions to abolish cash. The Gibling


Julius Deutschbauer

Money as art: The Gibling as a project focuses on these connections and tests local autonomy and alternative practice. The 1's, 2's and 5's notes are designed by artists who take up the themes of money and autonomy, and, together with an art 500 Gibling, they are published as editions (In the picture: Edition by Julius Deutschbauer).

Gibling Art Collection: Furthermore, since 2016, the Stadtwerkstatt has been operating a collection of Gibling art under the motto “The Gibling collects art”, thus appealing to economic-ideological statements such as “Let your money work”. The Gibling is now personalized to an art collectors, who make the art work. Gibling Art Collection
