Architecture Live 7 presents the work and uncompromising spirit that Raimund Abraham gave the field of architecture in conjunction with a selected group of Alumni that will share their perspective towards architecture beyond the bounds of this University.

The Institute of Architecture highlights for the first time its alumni program AAAC (Applied Architecture Alumni Club) and invited Graduates to give brief statements concerning their professional experiences, sharing both positive and negative insights.

From Chicken Wire to Wire Frame _ Kiesler’s Endless House, June 10, 7pm

Opening: Tuesday, 10th of June 2010, 7 p.m.
Kiesler Foundation Vienna, Mariahilfer Straße 1b, 1060 Vienna

June 11– September 17, 2010 Monday-Friday: 10 am-5 pm

Frederick Kiesler’s project of the Endless House is unparalleled one of the icons of 20th century architecture. Based on the model of 1959 which is made out of chicken wire and concrete, his large format “galaxies” and lyric poetry, the exhibition emphasizes on the utopian potential of his visionary architectural concepts. To date, the endless house exerts a compelling fascination for architects as well as for artists. The Kiesler Foundation presents the recent research of the Institute of Architecture at the University of Applied Arts for a possible realisation of the endless house architecture by means of high tech tools: From Chicken Wire to Wire Frame!

With works by students from the seminar “constructing the endless house” WS/SS 2009/10
Structural Design 3 with Klaus Bollinger, Wilfried Braumüller, Clemens Preisinger, Arne Hoffmann, Florian Medicus
