The Viennese artist Franz West was born on this day in 1947.
From abstract and interactive sculptures to furniture and collage, his oeuvre possesses a character that is at once lighthearted and deeply philosophical. He instinctively rejected the idea of a passive relationship between artwork and viewer and produced work that was vigorous and imposing yet unbounded and buoyant.

Here‘s a throwback to when we last visited his studio, which he shared with his late wife Tamuna Sirbiladze until his death in 2012 and is still in its original state. For more information please contact us.

Every day at dusk this „intervention in the open space" at one of Vienna's oldest and most historical squares surprises with a breathtaking play of light and forms.⠀

OLAFUR ELIASSON - YELLOW FOG, 2008⁠⠀
Am Hof, Vienna 1010⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Olafur Eliasson (* 1967, Denmark) is one of the most renowned contemporary artists. His impressive work Yellow Fog - shown for the first time in 1998, in front of the Jewish Museum in New York - is now on permanent display at the facade of the Verbund building. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Along the building there is a grate in the sidewalk, under which 32 fluorescent yellow lamps and fog machines are installed. After dusk, every three minutes for a duration of 40 seconds, yellow fog rises up the 48-meter-long facade.⠀
⁠⠀
For exactly one hour each day, the building gets a magical haze, which spreads out over the sidewalk and square and unfolds a play of color and fleeting forms. As Eliasson deliberately creates an artificial environment while the construction behind it remains visible, he is changing the urban scenery to open up new perspectives of perception and experience.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
- ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
’s art is driven by his interests in perception, movement, embodied experience, and feelings of self. He strives to make the concerns of art relevant to society at large. Art, for him, is a crucial means for turning thinking into doing in the world. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
The was created in 2004 by VERBUND AG, Austria’s leading power company and one of Europe’s leading producers of electricity from hydropower. It is a first-class company collection with a contemporary, international focus.⁠⠀

Can any public sculpture address the enormity of the Holocaust? Austere to the point of brutality, yet seen up close its details have a familiarity and approachability which invites a step towards it - this central memorial for the Austrian victims of the Holocaust is there to remind us of the 65,000 Jews murdered under the N**i regime. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀

⁠⠀
RACHEL WHITEREAD - MEMORIAL FOR THE AUSTRIAN JEWISH VICTIMS OF THE SHOAH, 2000⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Designed by British artist Rachel Whiteread (*1963) this steel and concrete memorial is as much a sculpture as a closed, windowless single storey building. Sitting on a low plinth at one end of the Judenplatz - once the centre of what was the Jewish Town - it is widely known as the Nameless Library. Its outside surfaces present themselves as shelves, turned inside out; a symbolic door conceals its interior. A library whose books are shown on the outside but are unreadable, it can be understood as an appreciation of Judaism as a religion of the „book“. However it also speaks of a cultural space of memory and loss created by the genocide of the European Jews. Engraved around its bottom are 41 names of places where Austrian Jews were put to death.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Through the emphasis of void and negative casting rather than positive form and material, the memorial acts as a "counter monument" in this way opposite to the production through history of grandiose and triumphal monumental objects. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Asserting itself against its opulent baroque surroundings and echoing the military bunkers of the second world war, Whiteread's sculpture is an interruption in the square. Its uncomfortable and unapologetic presence stops you short. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Intended to evoke the tragedy and brutality of the Holocaust and in the words of Simon Wiesenthal at the unveiling: "This monument shouldn't be beautiful, It must hurt."⁠⠀
⁠⠀
What are your feelings towards it?⁠⠀

FRANZ WEST - 4 LARVAE (LEMUR HEADS), 2001⁠⠀
Stubenbrücke Stadtpark, Vienna 1010⁠⠀
⁠⠀
The seemingly ancient 4 Larvae (Lemur Heads) made of painted, sculpted aluminum, extend up to three meters in height. They invite viewers to engage in a dialogue with the sculptural objects in combination with the symbolism of the inherently flowing water of the River Wien, whose loose, flexible, and unpredictable form leads to associations with chaos as a creative flow and a primeval material.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
“Ever new waters flow on those who step into the same rivers, and ever new souls emerge from it.” The Austrian artist Franz West (1947-2012) chose this maxim after Heraclitus’s “Fragment” to accompany his “Vier Lemurenköpfe” (Four Lemur Heads). While “lemures” describes the souls of the dead wandering around in the dark of night in Roman mythology, the Viennese dialect also relates to shady characters with the word “lemurs.” Mounted above the Wienfluss, the lemur heads symbolize the ghosts of the past. Yet, as the artist says, there are always new talents on the other bank from that of the deceased and forgotten.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
On the occasion of the retrospective Franz West: Merciless in 2001, the 4 Larvae (Lemur Heads) were displayed on the pylons of the Stubenbrücke. After an extensive restoration they have returned to this location in January 2016.⁠⠀

Happy National Day, Austria! 🇦🇹⠀
⠀
On this day in 1955, the Austrian Parliament passed a law declaring the country’s permanent neutrality. ⠀
Occurring just one day after foreign troops withdrew in the aftermath of World War II, this declaration marked a turning point in Austria’s history. It is a direct result of the allied occupation by the Soviet Union, the United States, the United Kingdom and France between 1945 and 1955. The Soviet Union would not have agreed to the signing of a State Treaty if Austria had not committed itself to declare its neutrality after the allied forces had left the country.
Since then neutrality has become a deeply ingrained element of Austrian identity. Legally, Austrian neutrality is both a part of the country’s constitution and of international law.⠀
⠀
Usually this day is being celebrated with an official ceremony at the historic Heldenplatz (Heroes’ Square). Attended by the Federal President and Minister of Defense commemorative speeches are held and a wreath is laid at the tomb of the Unknown Soldier. As this year‘s celebrating is being held online, the usually busy square remains a tranquil witness of our country’s varied history. ⠀
