Friedrich Kiesler in Vienna's Museum of Applied Arts

摘要

Friedrich Kiesler represented a complete exception in the art and architecture scene. His originality and intellectual impact still fascinate us today. "The history of his influence is 'endless' - like the decades he dedicated to his idea of the Endless House", says Dieter Bogner. Together with Maria Lind and Baerbel Vischer he curated the exhibition "Friedrich Kiesler. Life Visions" in MAK in Vienna. In the show Kiesler's visionary works are augmented with contemporary art interventions by Leonor Antunes, Celine Condorelli, Verena Dengler, Lili Reynaud-Dewar, Apolonija Sustersic and Rirkrit Tiravanija."Innumerable sketches, drawings and plans of buildings, stage sets, pictures, shop windows, furniture, and black and white photos that document his works, his Dada manifestos and programmatic texts represent a sheer inexhaustible source of stimuli for creative people and scholars alike", says Bogner.
