Wiener Sagen

Overview

Aiming to explore utopian places in the city of Vienna, the artists found themselves in the 'Wiener Gemeindebau' - blocks of council flats, which were erected mostly after WWII by the viennese municipality in order to provide low-cost public housing. The rectilinear architecture finds its opposition in colorful mosaics and paintings on their walls, depicting a more vibrant future. Using Super8 & 16mm projections, the artists create a performative mosaic of this utopian reality. Performed by Stefanie Zingl, Stefanie Weberhofer and Stefan Voglsinger
