Featuring on hundreds of drawings, original photographs, models and life-size spatial reconstructions, a large exhibition at MAK in Vienna provides a comprehensive overview of the phantasmagorical design universe of Frederick Kiesler, casting the spotlight on a revolutionary figure in 20th-century art and architecture who believed the primary objective of the architect was to improve people's material and mental well-being, and strengthening society in the process. The curator of the exhibition describes Kiesler's current relevance and great influence while notes written by Kiesler himself in 1934 explain his project for the Space-House, the prototype of a modern and experimental one-family home.
