Function Follows Vision, Vision Follows Reality

“Function follows vision, vision follows reality” was one of Frederick Kiesler’s (1890–1965) guiding principles. The architect and stage, exhibition, and furniture designer was interested in a form of design that unified both theory and practice. His ideas and designs combine artistic and social considerations, thereby creating situations in which art is able to be experienced in new and innovative ways.

Johan Lorbeer: Still Life Performance – TARZAN/STANDBEIN

Performing Public Art

The favourite genre of Johan Lorbeer’s work is super-slow performance.

The favourite genre of Johan Lorbeer’s work is super-slow performance. It is an artistic act, the working language of different types of visual art such as sculpture, installation and dramatic body gesture. At the centre of this creative effort are spatial-temporal gaps, interruptions, transitions and inversions. Through the fixation of his own body in a highly unusual place and condition in space and time, the artist is striving to express its fluidity in a physical way.

Lorbeer’s remains a real human being, he himself spending an hour and a half in tempo of the sculpture. He is not the sculpture itself, but rather its prototype. Thus half of the name of his performance—Tarzan/Standbein—refers to the classical pose of a model.

They can make use of raw, functionally almost unlimited, gender-neutral materials such as giant balloons, parachutes, ropes, wool, chalk, boxes, giant bubbles, and more. Children will become pioneers of the social and spatial reappropriation of the street as a place for a variety of uses through play within a shared and fair usage concept. Everyone will be invited to play with them on the street.

Shine and shininess are characteristic of surface effects, of glamour and spectacle, of bling-bling contingency, of ephemeral novelty, value added, and disposable fascination. Shine is what seizes upon affect as its primary carrier to mobilize attention, and what withstands the light of reason. Shine could be the paradoxically material base of an optical economy typically (mis)understood as being purely cognitive or immaterial. Shine and luster tend to block the view of things, while at the same time inviting fetishistic adherence. The architectures of finance and global management pretend transparency while offering glistening opacity. Likewise, the impression management of art world glitz acts through the highly refined shininess of contemporary signature white cube buildings, containing tons of gleaming video equipment for costly multi-screen installations. Yet this virtual availability of shine and gloss, of “Glanz” and “éclat,” is deceptive in its awesome ability to simultaneously neglect and conflate the material, political, and economic infrastructure of the production of today’s fetish-artifacts. Indeed, it is the particular materiality of declarative shininess that we now recognize as a clear sign of paradox, as it is so often used to mediate decay and divert attention away from oncoming collapse.

Politics of Shine stems from a two-part issue of e-flux journal edited by Tom Holert, Julieta Aranda, Brian Kuan Wood, and Anton Vidokle. The first part was published in January 2015 (http://www.e-flux.com/journal/editorial-politics-ofshine/) and the second appeared within e-flux journal’s SUPERCOMMUNITY contribution to this year’s Venice Biennale.

Vienna Complaints Choir: Intervention LIV

Founded in early 2010 by Viennese performance and media artist Oliver Hangl, who leads the group in cooperation with choir specialist Stefan Foidl, the Wiener Beschwerdechor (WBC) is a medium whose musical citizen interventions are polyphonic, contemporary, and performative, and always context- and site-specific.

Founded in early 2010 by Viennese performance and media artist Oliver Hangl, who leads the group in cooperation with choir specialist Stefan Foidl, the Wiener Beschwerdechor (WBC) is a medium whose musical citizen interventions are polyphonic, contemporary, and performative, and always context- and site-specific.

For the Vienna Biennale the WBC has developed a performance in several parts in which the 50-member choir will be positioned visually and acoustically along the Stubenring and at the Angewandte Innovation Laboratory (AIL): The intervention will proceed as a protest march along the Ringstrasse to the AIL as an orderly procession oscillating between parade, demonstration, and concert. Complaints can be submitted in the complaint boxes in the auditorium at the Angewandte and on the website.

Starts in the auditorium at the Angewandte.

Trust: The Social Currency in the Age of Big Data

In partnership with T-Mobile

Trust is the social currency of functioning societies and economic Systems.

Trust is the social currency of functioning societies and economic systems. The digitalization of all areas of life raises questions about our customary rules of trust: What concepts of privacy will people accept in the digital age? What rules do we need to make use of our new stores of data and prevent misuse?

The Wiener Spielstrasse offers children something that is hard to come by in parks: space to let loose. They can make use of raw, functionally almost unlimited, gender-neutral materials such as giant balloons, parachutes, ropes, wool, chalk, boxes, giant bubbles, and more. Children will become pioneers of the social and spatial reappropriation of the street as a place for a variety of uses through play within a shared and fair usage concept. Everyone will be invited to play with them on the street.

Ideas competition / Collateral Events

Crafted in Vienna: Vienna Makers.

departure, the creative unit of the Vienna Business Agency

The idea competition “Crafted in Vienna: Vienna Makers” focuses on craftsmanship in the urban context and opens up a conceptual field for experimentation for producers, manufacturers, and creatives in Vienna. With the rising awareness of production processes and cycles comes an increased desire for co-creation and quality and a trend toward local production and consumption.

The ideas competition “Crafted in Vienna. Vienna Makers.“ focuses on craftsmanship in the urban context and opens up a conceptual field for experimentation for producers, manufacturers and creatives in Vienna. With the rising awareness of production processes and cycles comes an increased desire for co-creation and quality and a trend towards local production and consummation.
As a result of urbanisation, the city is being reclaimed as a manufacturing location. Creatives are seizing this opportunity using the tools of traditional trades: Old local shops, workshops, ateliers and factories become a production site for premium furniture, clothing, lifestyle objects and other consumer goods. The new makers are creating interdisciplinary partnerships in order to share infrastructures, to experiment with proven materials and innovative technologies and to save resources. Using unique sales concepts for products that are oftentimes made-to-measure, appreciation is given to the customers in their support for the rediscovered craftsmanship. The city becomes a vital location for production and networking. „Crafted in Vienna. Vienna Makers.“ invites everyone to develop creative ideas at the central points of the value chain beyond mainstream consumerism.

Your idea for „Crafted in Vienna.Vienna Makers.“

No registration necessary.

Ethical banks provide a forward-looking alternative to the existing banking model, and refuse any financial transactions without an economic background firmly rooted in real life. They only finance projects serving the common good. You can visit a subsidiary of a forward-looking bank during the VIENNA BIENNALE 2015, and experience this participative, publicly-minded dealing with money first-hand.

The Wiener Spielstrasse offers children something that is hard to come by in parks: space to let loose. They can make use of raw, functionally almost unlimited, gender-neutral materials such as giant balloons, parachutes, ropes, wool, chalk, boxes, giant bubbles, and more. Children will become pioneers of the social and spatial reappropriation of the street as a place for a variety of uses through play within a shared and fair usage concept. Everyone will be invited to play with them on the street.

A project by the park service of the Wiener Familienbund in cooperation with the MAK

Individual Stories

Collecting as Portrait and Methodology

Collecting can be regarded as an attempt to save things from disappearance and oblivion. It is manifested in a subjective approach to personal stories and collective stories. Artists as collectors can take on various roles: many put together their own collections, which can range from artworks and archive material to kitsch.

Amy Spiers, Catherine Ryan: Ordering the Public

Performing Public Art

A group of hired security guards will patrol selected public areas in Vienna during the Performing Public Art Festival.

A group of hired security guards will patrol selected public areas in Vienna during the Performing Public Art Festival. At designated times, a single behavior will no longer be “acceptable” in a particular public space. These behaviors will be simple, innocuous things, such as speaking loudly, using a phone, walking in certain areas, sticking your hands in your pockets, sitting down, or wearing certain types of clothing. It will then be the guards’ job to approach members of the public and request that they desist from the behavior that is temporarily “inappropriate.” Ordering the Public is part of a series of works by Spiers and Ryan that explore and interfere with what is visible and permissible in public space.

 Is There Any Arts Council in Turkey? was the product of a dance coaching project with Cosmin Manolescu. It was performed in the street near Taksim Square in Istanbul before the protests of June 2013.

The performance delves into recent debates about the establishment of an arts council in Turkey to oversee the financial support given to artistic events such as performance art, dance, and theater. Independent artists remain effectively excluded from this funding.

Erdem Gündüz is dancer, performer, and choreographer. His research deals with improvisations, rituals, and public happenings as tools for investigating political realities and social movements. In 2013 Gündüz received the M100 Media Award, followed by the Theodor Heuss Medal, the Premio dell’Uomo in Piedi, and the Václav Havel Prize for Creative Dissent in 2014.

With its contemporary design interventions, the MAK DESIGN SALON in the Geymüllerschlössel extends an invitation to a dialogue across time in order to induce new perspectives and interplays between the historic ambience and current discourse in design.  

As a collateral project of the VIENNA BIENNALE 2015: IDEAS FOR CHANGE, the designer duo Dunne & Raby have been invited to share their view of the future of design. For many years, Anthony Dunne and Fiona Raby have been considered pioneers of a conceptual design movement that makes speculations about alternative lifestyles.   

With their most recent publication Speculative Everything: Design, Fiction, and Social Dreaming (MIT Press, 2013), they propagate an approach that uses design to illustrate and make negotiable plausible scenarios—rather than to simply visualize images of the future.

With The School of Constructed Realities, Dunne & Raby make use of the Geymüllerschlössel for the inauguration meeting of a fictitious school that both researches unreality and makes it the task of design. 1920). With their speculative school, the design duo invites visitors to contemplate the future, change, and the role of design.

A group of hired security guards will patrol selected public areas in Vienna during the Performing Public Art Festival. At designated times, a single behavior will no longer be “acceptable” in a particular public space. These behaviors will be simple, innocuous things, such as speaking loudly, using a phone, walking in certain areas, sticking your hands in your pockets, sitting down, or wearing certain types of clothing. It will then be the guards’ job to approach members of the public and request that they desist from the behavior that is temporarily “inappropriate.” Ordering the Public is part of a series of works by Spiers and Ryan that explore and interfere with what is visible and permissible in public space.

2051: departure Talk. A discussion about the contribution of creative companies to the quality of life in cities

A cooperative project by the Vienna Biennale and departure, the creative center of the Vienna Business Agency

What contribution can creative companies make to the quality of life in cities?

What contribution can creative companies make to the quality of life in cities? By focusing on social entrepreneurship, the Vienna Business Agency appeals to companies that find sustainable solutions to social challenges—with a particular focus on impetuses from the creative economy. Who are these change makers and what can they contribute to the Vienna of tomorrow?

With EPHEMEROPTERÆ 2015, Thyssen-Bornemisza Art Contemporary launches the fourth consecutive season of the foundation’s summer season spoken-word performance series held in ten prolonged episodes, curated by Daniela Zyman and Boris Ondreička. These unique, open-air acts explore the rich traditions and evanescent articulations of poetry, literature, performance, philosophy, and language-based artistic practice at TBA21–Augarten. EPHEMEROPTERÆ—referring to species which live only for a brief moment—stages the fleeting emergence of singular and truly remarkable voices performing, displaying, and choreographing spoken expression.


With Ann Cotten with Kerstin Cmelka, Pablo Leon de la Barra, T. J. Demos, Discoteca Flaming Star, Ines Doujak with John Barker, Jimmie Durham and Maria Thereza Alves, Anselm Franke, Cesar Garcia, Nastio Mosquito, Ernesto Neto and the Huni Kuin, Emily Roysdon...

Barbis Ruder: Wertschöpfungskette: 2F – Attacke

Performing Public Art

Value Chain (2013–2015) is a series of works comprising various body interventions in public space.

Value Chain (2013–2015) is a series of works comprising various body interventions in public space.

1F – Attack is the sixth work in the series. In the early morning hours, Barbis Ruder runs up against a rotating advertising column. Like a fly attracted by the light, the artist smacks against the column again and again.

In 2F – Attack, the live version of the video, six artists throw themselves against facades and closed doors. Through their “tilting at windmills,” the artists attack the institutions with their own flesh and blood. The intervention will take place along a route between MAK, Angewandte, Kunsthalle Wien Karlsplatz, Kunsthalle MQ and Architekturzentrum Wien. In a repetition of the same rhythm, first the artists lie exhausted on the ground, only to rise again, run to the next location, and undertake the next attempt.

Art transport between Angewandte Innovation Laboratory (AIL) – MAK – Angewandte – Kunsthalle Wien Karlsplatz – Kunsthalle MQ – Architekturzentrum Wien

MAK DESIGN SALON #04: Dunne & Raby. The School of Constructed Realities

With its contemporary design interventions, the MAK DESIGN SALON in the Geymüllerschlössel extends an invitation to a dialogue across time in order to induce new perspectives and interplays between the historic ambience and current discourse in design.  

With its contemporary design interventions, the MAK DESIGN SALON in the Geymüllerschlössel extends an invitation to a dialogue across time in order to induce new perspectives and interplays between the historic ambience and current discourse in design.  

As a collateral project of the VIENNA BIENNALE 2015: IDEAS FOR CHANGE, the designer duo Dunne & Raby have been invited to share their view of the future of design. For many years, Anthony Dunne and Fiona Raby have been considered pioneers of a conceptual design movement that makes speculations about alternative lifestyles.   

With their most recent publication Speculative Everything: Design, Fiction, and Social Dreaming (MIT Press, 2013), they propagate an approach that uses design to illustrate and make negotiable plausible scenarios—rather than to simply visualize images of the future.

With The School of Constructed Realities, Dunne & Raby make use of the Geymüllerschlössel for the inauguration meeting of a fictitious school that both researches unreality and makes it the task of design. 1920). With their speculative school, the design duo invites visitors to contemplate the future, change, and the role of design.

MAK DESIGN SALON #04: Dunne & Raby. The School of Constructed Realities

With its contemporary design interventions, the MAK DESIGN SALON in the Geymüllerschlössel extends an invitation to a dialogue across time in order to induce new perspectives and interplays between the historic ambience and current discourse in design.  

With its contemporary design interventions, the MAK DESIGN SALON in the Geymüllerschlössel extends an invitation to a dialogue across time in order to induce new perspectives and interplays between the historic ambience and current discourse in design.  

As a collateral project of the VIENNA BIENNALE 2015: IDEAS FOR CHANGE, the designer duo Dunne & Raby have been invited to share their view of the future of design. For many years, Anthony Dunne and Fiona Raby have been considered pioneers of a conceptual design movement that makes speculations about alternative lifestyles.   

With their most recent publication Speculative Everything: Design, Fiction, and Social Dreaming (MIT Press, 2013), they propagate an approach that uses design to illustrate and make negotiable plausible scenarios—rather than to simply visualize images of the future.

With The School of Constructed Realities, Dunne & Raby make use of the Geymüllerschlössel for the inauguration meeting of a fictitious school that both researches unreality and makes it the task of design. 1920). With their speculative school, the design duo invites visitors to contemplate the future, change, and the role of design.

Ethical banks provide a forward-looking alternative to the existing banking model, and refuse any financial transactions without an economic background firmly rooted in real life. They only finance projects serving the common good. You can visit a subsidiary of a forward-looking bank during the VIENNA BIENNALE 2015, and experience this participative, publicly-minded dealing with money first-hand.

EPHEMEROPTERÆ

Ten spoken word-performances

With EPHEMEROPTERÆ 2015, Thyssen-Bornemisza Art Contemporary will launch the fourth consecutive season of the foundation’s summer season spoken-word performance series held in ten prolonged episodes, curated by Daniela Zyman and Boris Ondreička.

With EPHEMEROPTERÆ 2015, Thyssen-Bornemisza Art Contemporary launches the fourth consecutive season of the foundation’s summer season spoken-word performance series held in ten prolonged episodes, curated by Daniela Zyman and Boris Ondreička.

With its contemporary design interventions, the MAK DESIGN SALON in the Geymüllerschlössel extends an invitation to a dialogue across time in order to induce new perspectives and interplays between the historic ambience and current discourse in design.  

As a collateral project of the VIENNA BIENNALE 2015: IDEAS FOR CHANGE, the designer duo Dunne & Raby have been invited to share their view of the future of design. For many years, Anthony Dunne and Fiona Raby have been considered pioneers of a conceptual design movement that makes speculations about alternative lifestyles.   

With their most recent publication Speculative Everything: Design, Fiction, and Social Dreaming (MIT Press, 2013), they propagate an approach that uses design to illustrate and make negotiable plausible scenarios—rather than to simply visualize images of the future.

With The School of Constructed Realities, Dunne & Raby make use of the Geymüllerschlössel for the inauguration meeting of a fictitious school that both researches unreality and makes it the task of design. 1920). With their speculative school, the design duo invites visitors to contemplate the future, change, and the role of design.

With EPHEMEROPTERÆ 2015, Thyssen-Bornemisza Art Contemporary launches the fourth consecutive season of the foundation’s summer season spoken-word performance series held in ten prolonged episodes, curated by Daniela Zyman and Boris Ondreička. These unique, open-air acts explore the rich traditions and evanescent articulations of poetry, literature, performance, philosophy, and language-based artistic practice at TBA21–Augarten. EPHEMEROPTERÆ—referring to species which live only for a brief moment—stages the fleeting emergence of singular and truly remarkable voices performing, displaying, and choreographing spoken expression.

With its contemporary design interventions, the MAK DESIGN SALON in the Geymüllerschlössel extends an invitation to a dialogue across time in order to induce new perspectives and interplays between the historic ambience and current discourse in design.  

As a collateral project of the VIENNA BIENNALE 2015: IDEAS FOR CHANGE, the designer duo Dunne & Raby have been invited to share their view of the future of design. For many years, Anthony Dunne and Fiona Raby have been considered pioneers of a conceptual design movement that makes speculations about alternative lifestyles.   

With their most recent publication Speculative Everything: Design, Fiction, and Social Dreaming (MIT Press, 2013), they propagate an approach that uses design to illustrate and make negotiable plausible scenarios—rather than to simply visualize images of the future.

With The School of Constructed Realities, Dunne & Raby make use of the Geymüllerschlössel for the inauguration meeting of a fictitious school that both researches unreality and makes it the task of design. 1920). With their speculative school, the design duo invites visitors to contemplate the future, change, and the role of design.

Workshop from the “2051 Forum” series
The Milliardenstadt [Billions City] Team Presents:
Repair and Service Center (R.U.S.Z)
A Good Life in a Capitalist Market Economy

The mandate and mission of the Repair and Service Center (R.U.S.Z) is to link social and environmental needs in order to create jobs for the formerly unemployed and train them to become highly skilled technicians. As a “byproduct,” these people will make important contributions to the reduction of waste and the conservation of resources.

The Repair and Service Center (R.U.S.Z) in brief:
- Explaining the problem of new electrical and electronic devices that are no longer designed to be long-lasting and easy to repair
- The problem of resources: What happens to broken devices?
- How can we better manage this problem in the future? By sharing, trading, repairing, etc.

Symbiotic painting: communicating with one another through the language of colors

In this workshop, participants will paint a picture together and get to know one another in a completely new way on a visual level. We will take common rather than solitary paths, share the joy of painting, and learn from one another. Living together in cities often results in interpersonal voids. These voids will be gradually filled through a process of symbiotic painting between two or more participants—with lines, colors, dreams, wishes, feelings, personality, compassion ...

Location: MAK Columned Main Hall

Creative Time, a New York based nonprofit that has presented innovative public art projects since 1973. One of our signature programs is the Creative Time Summit, an annual conference dedicated to art and politics. Called “visionary” by the New York Times, the Summit brings together thought-provoking artists, activists, curators, scholars, and policymakers who operate at the intersection of these fields. Since 2011, a global network of over 150 organizations, universities, and cultural institutions have hosted screenings of the Summit everywhere from Melbourne to Kathmandu, expanding the audience beyond the 5,600 live attendees and 230 international presenters who have participated since 2009.
Over the course of three days in August 2015, the 7th Creative Time Summit, devoted to expanded notions of “curriculum,” will take place within Okwui Enwezor’s exhibition for la Biennale di Venezia, All the World’s Futures. Since 2009, the annual Creative Time Summit has operated as a convening, a discussion, and a platform for the intersection of art and politics. La Biennale offers a unique opportunity to gather an international, interdisciplinary community to consider how knowledge is produced and how it comes into contact with civil society. In its original Latin, curriculum signified a course, like the path that one ran around or traversed in a racing chariot. When the term began appearing in seventeenth century Scottish universities, it was used figuratively to mean “a course of study.” Eventually, it signaled that which prepares a person for working, thinking, and participating as a fully developed member of society. When understood as a network of lived experiences, learned actions, and known facts, curriculum speaks of all that this Summit hopes to address.

Ethical banks provide a forward-looking alternative to the existing banking model, and refuse any financial transactions without an economic background firmly rooted in real life. They only finance projects serving the common good. You can visit a subsidiary of a forward-looking bank during the VIENNA BIENNALE 2015, and experience this participative, publicly-minded dealing with money first-hand.

Sketch magdas HOTEL on a postcard to help decorate the hotel!

Vienna Skill Smiths is a group of community members in Vienna who make learning accessible and entertaining by sharing their enthusiasm for an area of knowledge or a skill with interested people.

You can learn how to use paper and pencil to capture scenes and draw in perspective. This class will be taught by Rainer, who studied interior design in London and creates presentation drawings for interior and landscape designs. Participants will work with him to create their first drawings.

We’ll choose things in and around magdas HOTEL to draw. Each of the drawings will be made on a postcard that will be framed and hung in one of the rooms at magdas HOTEL.

With its contemporary design interventions, the MAK DESIGN SALON in the Geymüllerschlössel extends an invitation to a dialogue across time in order to induce new perspectives and interplays between the historic ambience and current discourse in design.  

As a collateral project of the VIENNA BIENNALE 2015: IDEAS FOR CHANGE, the designer duo Dunne & Raby have been invited to share their view of the future of design. For many years, Anthony Dunne and Fiona Raby have been considered pioneers of a conceptual design movement that makes speculations about alternative lifestyles.   

With their most recent publication Speculative Everything: Design, Fiction, and Social Dreaming (MIT Press, 2013), they propagate an approach that uses design to illustrate and make negotiable plausible scenarios—rather than to simply visualize images of the future.

With The School of Constructed Realities, Dunne & Raby make use of the Geymüllerschlössel for the inauguration meeting of a fictitious school that both researches unreality and makes it the task of design. 1920). With their speculative school, the design duo invites visitors to contemplate the future, change, and the role of design.

Vienna is Growing: At Whose Expense?
“More growth” is the order of the day in times of global crises. Development is seen as a guarantor of prosperity and a healthy economy.

Vienna is Growing: At Whose Expense?

“More growth” is the order of the day in times of global crises. Development is seen as a guarantor of prosperity and a healthy economy. But can this promise still be kept in times of dwindling resources and disadvantaged areas? What opportunities and risks do growth scenarios entail, and how can the process be designed to be equally fair to all city residents? What environmental, socially responsible, and regional models offer alternatives to help us combat the negative consequences for the environment and urban society?

A discussion with Michael Getzner (Centre of Public Finance and Infrastructure Policy, Vienna University of Technology), Christoph Chorherr (Green Party, Vienna City Council), Thomas Ritt (Vienna Chamber of Labor), and Franziska Leeb (moderator)

The round-table discussion will be followed by a reception with snacks and drinks.

Join in on the discussion! We’ll talk about the significance of the new: Is the idea of innovation the absolute imperative of our time? What social change do we really need? Art educators from the MAK, Kunsthalle Wien, and the Az W will invite you to think about and discuss these questions with them. We’ll work with things, images, and quotations as well as works from the exhibitions and search for untested and previously unknown paths in order to imagine the new.

Bauwerk:Stadt – My 2051 City

2051: Smart Life in the City

Children are addressed as experts of their spaces; they will develop and build their “2051 City” in the ballgame area of the Alois-Drasche-Park in Vienna’s Wieden district over the course of two weeks this summer (24 – 29 Aug 2015 and 31 Aug – 3 Sep 2015). In six workshops during the first week of the Bauwerk:Stadt, spatial structures, floating objects, and utopian landscapes will be made from everyday and reused materials.

In six workshops during the first week of the Bauwerk:Stadt, spatial structures, floating objects, and utopian landscapes will be made from everyday and reused materials. Each of these workshops is dedicated to a different material: objects and spaces will be created in a spontaneous and improvised way—with simple construction techniques and without tools—from cardboard tubes, packaging, plastic bags, and worn-out furniture. In keeping with the concept of free play, the workshops, will equip the children with new skills and abilities to build the city of the future, which will emerge in the course of the project.

Private Space
We will create objects, costumes, and spaces out of cardboard tubes and boxes using simple connectors and tape.

Bauwerk:Stadt is open to all future designers aged from 8 to 14. Everyone who takes part can construct a stand-alone building or jointly design the “2051 City” as a group.

A project by the Wiener Familienbund [Vienna Family Association] in cooperation with the MAK and the designer duo Célia-Hannes (Célia Picard and Hannes Schreckensberger).

Children are addressed as experts of their spaces; they will develop and build their “2051 City” in the ballgame area of the Alois-Drasche-Park in Vienna’s Wieden district over the course of two weeks this summer (24 – 29 Aug 2015 and 31 Aug – 3 Sep 2015). In six workshops during the first week of the Bauwerk:Stadt, spatial structures, floating objects, and utopian landscapes will be made from everyday and reused materials. Each of these workshops is dedicated to a different material: objects and spaces will be created in a spontaneous and improvised way—with simple construction techniques and without tools—from cardboard tubes, packaging, plastic bags, and worn-out furniture. In keeping with the concept of free play, the workshops, will equip the children with new skills and abilities to build the city of the future, which will emerge in the course of the project.

Utopian Landscape
Packaging material made of styrofoam from electronic devices will be stuck together, stacked, and connected to create imaginary ice landscapes.

Bauwerk:Stadt is open to all future designers aged from 8 to 14. Everyone who takes part can construct a stand-alone building or jointly design the “2051 City” as a group.
A project by the Wiener Familienbund [Vienna Family Association] in cooperation with the MAK and the designer duo Célia-Hannes (Célia Picard and Hannes Schreckensberger).

Ethical banks provide a forward-looking alternative to the existing banking model, and refuse any financial transactions without an economic background firmly rooted in real life. They only finance projects serving the common good. You can visit a subsidiary of a forward-looking bank during the VIENNA BIENNALE 2015, and experience this participative, publicly-minded dealing with money first-hand.

MAK DESIGN SALON #04: Dunne & Raby. The School of Constructed Realities

With its contemporary design interventions, the MAK DESIGN SALON in the Geymüllerschlössel extends an invitation to a dialogue across time in order to induce new perspectives and interplays between the historic ambience and current discourse in design.  

As a collateral project of the VIENNA BIENNALE 2015: IDEAS FOR CHANGE, the designer duo Dunne & Raby have been invited to share their view of the future of design. For many years, Anthony Dunne and Fiona Raby have been considered pioneers of a conceptual design movement that makes speculations about alternative lifestyles.   

With their most recent publication Speculative Everything: Design, Fiction, and Social Dreaming (MIT Press, 2013), they propagate an approach that uses design to illustrate and make negotiable plausible scenarios—rather than to simply visualize images of the future.

With The School of Constructed Realities, Dunne & Raby make use of the Geymüllerschlössel for the inauguration meeting of a fictitious school that both researches unreality and makes it the task of design. 1920). With their speculative school, the design duo invites visitors to contemplate the future, change, and the role of design.

Three-day workshop (31 August–2 September)

Please consider in advance what kind of bicycle you want to build, how it will be configured. If you want to build a replica of an existing bicycle, then bring it along or find a drawing of the frame geometry on the Internet including the dimensions. If you already have specific ideas about the frame, bring along a sketch. If you don’t know yet exactly what you want, please calculate your dimensions on the website www.competitivecyclist.com and bring them to the preliminary discussion. For city bikes, all you need is your inseam length and height.
It is also possible to bring along a friend to help build a bicycle. In this case, the cost of the seminar will remain the same, and the work can be shared.

2051: Smart Life in the City

A conversation with Harald Gruendl and Thomas Geisler (curators of the exhibition), Noëmi Leemann (new concepts for learning, MAK), Lukas Zeilbauer (HYPOTOPIA team, Milliardenstadt [billions city]), Doris Rothauer (Vienna Biennale Circle), as well as Beatrice Jaschke and Martina Griesser (schnittpunkt)

A conversation with Harald Gruendl and Thomas Geisler (curators of the exhibition), Noëmi Leemann (new concepts for learning, MAK), Lukas Zeilbauer (HYPOTOPIA team, Milliardenstadt [billions city]), Doris Rothauer (Vienna Biennale Circle), as well as Beatrice Jaschke and Martina Griesser (schnittpunkt)

2051: Smart Life in the City consists of an overview exhibition at the MAK and ten experiments around the city of Vienna, called demonstrators. Under the theme of “Ideas for Change,” the exhibition examines an alternative future for life in the city and the role of design as a tool for a sustainable and solidary lifestyle. Design is not understood so much as a discipline, but as a strategy in order to significantly impact the context and work environment in which creative professionals will act in the future. The growth of digitalization as an engine of technical and social innovation, which also results from friction between top-down and bottom-up interests, will shape the city as the dominant living environment of the 21st century.

Starting with these aspects, 2051: Smart Life in the City aims not only to present members of civil society and their practice, but also to bring their participatory potential for positive change to the exhibition venue and educational institution of the museum as well as the city. Experiences with this approach will be discussed during a tour with the participants in the exhibition: What were the structural and organizational challenges in realizing this concept? Why does the practice of museum work remain slow to adapt? Can change be initiated on the institutional level at all? How does one design an exhibition whose theme is urban life in the 21st century and beyond? How can design be taught as a strategy?

Bauwerk:Stadt – My 2051 City

2051: Smart Life in the City

Children are addressed as experts of their spaces; they will develop and build their “2051 City” in the ballgame area of the Alois-Drasche-Park in Vienna’s Wieden district over the course of two weeks this summer (24 – 29 Aug 2015 and 31 Aug – 3 Sep 2015). In six workshops during the first week of the Bauwerk:Stadt, spatial structures, floating objects, and utopian landscapes will be made from everyday and reused materials.

A workshop on the city of the future from a child’s perspective
Children are addressed as experts of their spaces; they will develop and build their “2051 City” in the ballgame area of the Alois-Drasche-Park in Vienna’s Wieden district over the course of two weeks this summer (24 – 29 Aug 2015 and 31 Aug – 3 Sep 2015). In six workshops during the first week of the Bauwerk:Stadt, spatial structures, floating objects, and utopian landscapes will be made from everyday and reused materials. Each of these workshops is dedicated to a different material: objects and spaces will be created in a spontaneous and improvised way—with simple construction techniques and without tools—from cardboard tubes, packaging, plastic bags, and worn-out furniture. In keeping with the concept of free play, the workshops, will equip the children with new skills and abilities to build the city of the future, which will emerge in the course of the project.

Bauwerk:Stadt is open to all future designers aged from 8 to 14. Everyone who takes part can construct a stand-alone building or jointly design the “2051 City” as a group.

In 2115 the Austrian capital has grown from two million (2030) to eight million inhabitants. Of course, it has also grown in size. As a hub for important networks throughout Europe, VIN (Vienna) is nicknamed Europe’s “BlueYork.” Water—blue gold—is the most valuable resource in the world. HOHES LAND/VIN 2115 shows where the future can lead and invites visitors to think, exchange ideas, and change the world. “The best way to predict the future is to invent it.” (Alan Kay)

With its contemporary design interventions, the MAK DESIGN SALON in the Geymüllerschlössel extends an invitation to a dialogue across time in order to induce new perspectives and interplays between the historic ambience and current discourse in design.  

As a collateral project of the VIENNA BIENNALE 2015: IDEAS FOR CHANGE, the designer duo Dunne & Raby have been invited to share their view of the future of design. For many years, Anthony Dunne and Fiona Raby have been considered pioneers of a conceptual design movement that makes speculations about alternative lifestyles.   

With their most recent publication Speculative Everything: Design, Fiction, and Social Dreaming (MIT Press, 2013), they propagate an approach that uses design to illustrate and make negotiable plausible scenarios—rather than to simply visualize images of the future.

With The School of Constructed Realities, Dunne & Raby make use of the Geymüllerschlössel for the inauguration meeting of a fictitious school that both researches unreality and makes it the task of design. 1920). With their speculative school, the design duo invites visitors to contemplate the future, change, and the role of design.

The Wiener Spielstrasse offers children something that is hard to come by in parks: space to let loose. They can make use of raw, functionally almost unlimited, gender-neutral materials such as giant balloons, parachutes, ropes, wool, chalk, boxes, giant bubbles, and more. Children will become pioneers of the social and spatial reappropriation of the street as a place for a variety of uses through play within a shared and fair usage concept. Everyone will be invited to play with them on the street.

With its contemporary design interventions, the MAK DESIGN SALON in the Geymüllerschlössel extends an invitation to a dialogue across time in order to induce new perspectives and interplays between the historic ambience and current discourse in design.  

As a collateral project of the VIENNA BIENNALE 2015: IDEAS FOR CHANGE, the designer duo Dunne & Raby have been invited to share their view of the future of design. For many years, Anthony Dunne and Fiona Raby have been considered pioneers of a conceptual design movement that makes speculations about alternative lifestyles.   

With their most recent publication Speculative Everything: Design, Fiction, and Social Dreaming (MIT Press, 2013), they propagate an approach that uses design to illustrate and make negotiable plausible scenarios—rather than to simply visualize images of the future.

With The School of Constructed Realities, Dunne & Raby make use of the Geymüllerschlössel for the inauguration meeting of a fictitious school that both researches unreality and makes it the task of design. 1920). With their speculative school, the design duo invites visitors to contemplate the future, change, and the role of design.

MAK FORUM

For the 2049 Vienna Biennale, the artist Ergün Demir is commissioned to investigate the history of the smart city. Struggling to find material for his work, Ergün uses illicit technology to reconstruct the badly damaged city archives. What he finds will challenge many of his assumptions about why Vienna is different.

"What I am trying to say is: looking back from 2049, it is easy to imagine that this city we now live in was a natural evolution. But what if we are overlooking the hard work of Viennese citizens and social movements throughout history, before the smart city was even conceived? What if I am in fact rewriting Vienna's history to remove the difficult people, the difficult questions?"

The Report is a work of artistic research and speculative fiction that will be released as a limited printed edition in English on September 15. Inspired by many past and present Viennese citizens' initiatives and social movements, this MAK NITE Lab not only marks the public presentation of The Report, but also aims to bring together people involved in shaping Vienna from the bottom up and provide a forum for discussion on another possible future. The authors invite visitors to meet and discuss over a drink.

______

This MAK NITE Lab is the fifth event in a series that is guest-curated by Maria Lind, director of Tensta Konsthall in Stockholm, in connection with her group exhibition Future Light for the VIENNA BIENNALE 2015. This is the closing event of the commission that started with a talk by Brian Kuan Wood ("Is it Love?", e-flux journal, 2009) and a film screening by Marysia Lewandowska (Museum Futures, 2008) in April 2014. The second MAK NITE Lab in this series in November 2014 featured a talk by Fernando García-Dory entitled "On Art, Agriculture, and the Countryside: Possible Futures of Existing Initiatives in the Fields." In December 2014, STEALTH.unlimited and Stefan Gruber organized a MAK NITE Lab discussing possible effects of the crisis of the welfare state on the future of Vienna. This was followed by a public conversation with p.m., author of bolo'bolo, in March 2015.

“What if, in the future, shopping malls evolved into consumption-free zones?”

Talk sponsored by CMS

What does the Shopping Center of the future look like? What is their additional benefit in times of online shopping?
 

What does the Shopping Center of the future look like? What is their additional benefit in times of online shopping? In Digital Modernity, the shopping center, next to the virtual world of e-commerce, counts as one of the so-called “third places” (after home and work) that, according to sociologist Ray Oldenburg, play an important role in community building. Nonetheless, the analogous shopping mall is only one of many marketplaces and social spaces representing a model no longer in tune with the times, due to its focus on maximum consumption. “The Mall” at the Wien Mitte railway station—a hybrid train station, office building, shopping and gastronomy center—is a laboratory for the project Shopping Spotting by designer Julia Landsiedl in context of the demonstrator The Shopping Mall for the exhibition 2051: Smart Life in the City. For malls to keep up with online competitors and enhance their value proposition, designer Julia Landsiedl envisions a commerce-free zone where consumers can hang out and meet others.

Since 2005 BIG ART has been developing permanent and temporary art projects in, around, and on selected buildings of the Bundesimmobiliengesellschaft, Austria’s largest owner of real estate. Looking back on ten years of involvement, it is important to share experiences and trace the current synergies and functions of art for construction as well as the social value added and utopian potential.

BIG ART: 10 Years of Art and Construction

Exhibition & Film

Since 2005 BIG ART has been developing permanent and temporary art projects in, around, and on selected buildings of the Bundesimmobiliengesellschaft.

Since 2005 BIG ART has been developing permanent and temporary art projects in, around, and on selected buildings of the Bundesimmobiliengesellschaft. As Austria’s largest owner of real estate, the BIG corporation has set itself the task of enabling architecture, art, and users to enter into a dialogue.

In the 20th century, the autonomy and synthesis of art and architecture were demanded under converse auspices (Adolf Loos, Bauhaus). Today, these aspirations stand to a certain extent side by side and are perceived by BIG ART as concurrent phenomena in public spaces.

The exhibition in the MAK FORUM presents an overview of BIG’s art and construction projects as well as the film BIG ART – 10 Jahre Kunst und Bau [BIG ART: 10 Years of Art and Construction].

The show will be accompanied by talks and a panel discussion with international experts on Wednesday, 16 September, 6:30 p.m. in the MAK Lecture Hall (Entrance: Weiskirchnerstraße 3).

They can make use of raw, functionally almost unlimited, gender-neutral materials such as giant balloons, parachutes, ropes, wool, chalk, boxes, giant bubbles, and more. Children will become pioneers of the social and spatial reappropriation of the street as a place for a variety of uses through play within a shared and fair usage concept. Everyone will be invited to play with them on the street.

This city trail of the future explores the questions: What if we could use popular entertainment to generate ideas through play? What if, in the future, apartments could grow or shrink to our needs? What if the city of the future had to be self-sufficient in its production and consumption? What if tourism and migration both could fructify a city’s diversity? What role does design play in the context of “social business”?

A VIENNA BIENNALE curators' tour with MAK curator Bärbel Vischer in conversation with Emile Schrijver, designated director of the Joods Historisch Museum in Amsterdam, professor for Jewish book history and curator of the Bibliotheca Rosenthaliana at the University of Amsterdam.

The conversation will focus on the installation by the Romanian artist Ștefan Sava, which deals with the genizah (meaning "storage" in Hebrew), a place for storing liturgical writings, books, and objects that are no longer used. Additional works by the artists Belu-Simeon Fainaru, Marcel Janco, Adolf Loos, Joachim Nica, Ion Bitzan, and Daniel Spoerri will flesh out the discussion on the importance of writing for the collective memory and the history of the Jewish Diaspora.

Parallel of the presentation of a shoe that is manufactured according to “fair” principles and at least in part using high-tech DIY processes, a team of experts will discuss tomorrow’s work from various perspectives.

Under the title “Work Matters: More Punk, Less Hell,” we will discuss the themes of work, social innovation, and social design in the exhibition 2051: Smart Life in the City. How will work change? What will products look like that are not (or only partially) industrially manufactured? How will their use and their value change, and how will production and work change against this background? What will spaces and institutions look like that are based on these principles? How will this change our world, and what does a positive vision for it look like?

Smart Life in the City

A panel discussion as part of the VIENNA BIENNALE 2015 in partnership with T-Mobile.

A panel discussion as part of the VIENNA BIENNALE 2015 in partnership with T-Mobile.

“Smart city” has become synonymous with the way in which urban development can be improved by using digital technology and mobile communication. Smart Life in the City sets this approach on its feet: how can city dwellers themselves make use of the opportunities that digital developments offer them? Examples of “smart life” range from the private utilization of solar power, hybrid urban transportation, 3D printing, and self-tracking for a more conscious lifestyle, to first-rate online education and personal entrepreneurship.

The following will discuss Smart Life in the City:

Ulrike Huemer, Chief Information Officer, Vienna City Administration
Gianluca Dianese, Smart City Project Pisa, Deutsche Telekom
Simon Niederkircher, Co-developer of the mini-power station “simon,” Ökostrom AG
Gerfried Stocker, Artistic Director, Ars Electronica
Christoph Thun-Hohenstein, Director, MAK; Initiator, VIENNA BIENNALE 2015
Andreas Bierwirth, CEO, T-Mobile Austria

Moderation: Corinna Milborn, Information Director, Puls 4

 

In the context of the event, which will take place in German and English, exhibits for a “smart life” will be on display.

Book presentation Textures of Thought / Texturen des Denkens

Geta Brătescu, Ion Grigorescu, Dan Perjovschi, Gabriela Gantenbein

Presentation in context of the exhibition Mapping Bucharest: Art, Memory, and Revolution 1916-2016

Presentation in context of the exhibition Mapping Bucharest: Art, Memory, and Revolution 1916-2016
MAK Exhibition Hall
Free admission

This book examines select works by three Romanian artists from three generations who are among the most renowned artist-thinkers (Deleuze) in the world. Three art historians and three philosophers explore selected works from the artists’ extensive oeuvres and attempt to open them up with their respective approaches.

As diverse as Brătescu, Grigorescu, and Perjovschi may be in their thought and practice, and as different as their reactions to the cultural and political situation in Romania may be, the three artists nevertheless share the ability to open up new spaces of thought and thus to strike new artistic paths. Along with processing European cultural and literary history and information about contemporary artistic developments in the West—albeit barely available until 1989—it is primarily their own precise observations of everyday life that influence their works. What their individual ways of creative production also have in common is the high significance they place on writing: be it in the form of decades of diary entries or book publications and contributions to the most important intellectual journals of Romania. The artists visualize their reflections about transitions and obfuscations, of the visible and sayable, according to their individual concepts of art. Thus, they not only create new forms of art from mostly quotidian materials, but also present themselves as thinkers in the tradition of the subversive image.

Does the chance exist in your life to integrate what you really want into your working life?

By means of a DIY-shoe and a mobile factory subjects of the Resilienz in the working life are discussed and a new positioning in the own working biography are discussed. In view of crisis-like rejections of the paid labour and the transformation linked with it, we compile personal strategies to handle with the change.

They can make use of raw, functionally almost unlimited, gender-neutral materials such as giant balloons, parachutes, ropes, wool, chalk, boxes, giant bubbles, and more. Children will become pioneers of the social and spatial reappropriation of the street as a place for a variety of uses through play within a shared and fair usage concept. Everyone will be invited to play with them on the street.

Ethical banks provide a forward-looking alternative to the existing banking model, and refuse any financial transactions without an economic background firmly rooted in real life. They only finance projects serving the common good. You can visit a subsidiary of a forward-looking bank during the VIENNA BIENNALE 2015, and experience this participative, publicly-minded dealing with money first-hand.

With its contemporary design interventions, the MAK DESIGN SALON in the Geymüllerschlössel extends an invitation to a dialogue across time in order to induce new perspectives and interplays between the historic ambience and current discourse in design.  

As a collateral project of the VIENNA BIENNALE 2015: IDEAS FOR CHANGE, the designer duo Dunne & Raby have been invited to share their view of the future of design. For many years, Anthony Dunne and Fiona Raby have been considered pioneers of a conceptual design movement that makes speculations about alternative lifestyles.   

With their most recent publication Speculative Everything: Design, Fiction, and Social Dreaming (MIT Press, 2013), they propagate an approach that uses design to illustrate and make negotiable plausible scenarios—rather than to simply visualize images of the future.

With The School of Constructed Realities, Dunne & Raby make use of the Geymüllerschlössel for the inauguration meeting of a fictitious school that both researches unreality and makes it the task of design. 1920). With their speculative school, the design duo invites visitors to contemplate the future, change, and the role of design.

As a collateral project of the VIENNA BIENNALE 2015: IDEAS FOR CHANGE, the designer duo Dunne & Raby have been invited to share their view of the future of design. For many years, Anthony Dunne and Fiona Raby have been considered pioneers of a conceptual design movement that makes speculations about alternative lifestyles.   

With their most recent publication Speculative Everything: Design, Fiction, and Social Dreaming (MIT Press, 2013), they propagate an approach that uses design to illustrate and make negotiable plausible scenarios—rather than to simply visualize images of the future.

With The School of Constructed Realities, Dunne & Raby make use of the Geymüllerschlössel for the inauguration meeting of a fictitious school that both researches unreality and makes it the task of design. 1920).

Book Presentation
Martin Mostböck: AID ArchitectureInteriorsDesign
Architect and Designer Martin Mostböck designs houses, interiors, and everyday objects. Mostböck renounces superficial styling; with his designs, he gets to the very bottom of things. In the process, he searches for and finds the authentic. He considers architecture to be similar to people going on a journey together, at the end of which everyone is delighted; he compares planning a house to working on a tailor-made suit.

The Wiener Spielstrasse offers children something that is hard to come by in parks: space to let loose. They can make use of raw, functionally almost unlimited, gender-neutral materials such as giant balloons, parachutes, ropes, wool, chalk, boxes, giant bubbles, and more. Children will become pioneers of the social and spatial reappropriation of the street as a place for a variety of uses through play within a shared and fair usage concept. Everyone will be invited to play with them on the street.

A project by the park service of the Wiener Familienbund in cooperation with the MAK

How do we want to live in the future? The exhibition project, organized by the MAK and departure, the creative center of the Vienna Business Agency, investigates the role of design as a tool for positive change in the context of the VIENNA BIENNALE 2015: IDEAS FOR CHANGE. Ten teams have developed ideas for the urban everyday life of the future, which can be tested and discussed. Integrated into the urban space of Vienna, they are intended to motivate people to become part of the change process and an intelligent urban vision.

Create Your Bucharest

Panel Discussion

In October 2014 the idea competition Create Your Bucharest was launched as part of the VIENNA BIENNALE exhibition Mapping Bucharest: Art, Memory, and Revolution 1916-2016, which sought new ideas for the Romanian capital.

In October 2014 the idea competition Create Your Bucharest was launched as part of the VIENNA BIENNALE exhibition Mapping Bucharest: Art, Memory, and Revolution 1916-2016, which sought new ideas for the Romanian capital. Bucharest, which has been shaped by various cultural, historical, and political influences as well as social models, is one of the most important centers in Europe currently undergoing a major process of change. Prizes were awarded for ten innovative concepts from artists, architects, and designers among the total of 225 entries in March 2015 in Bucharest.

The artists Ovidiu Anton, Alexandru Bălăşescu, Larisa Crunţeanu and Dragoş Olea, as well as Barbara Baum (freelance curator and art advisor) and Bärbel Vischer (curator, MAK Contemporary Art Collection) participate in a discussion on selected projects that deal with questions of innovation, artistic and social relevance, and the sustainability of artistic practice in relation to urbanist scenarios in Bucharest.

Mapping Bucharest and Create Your Bucharest were realized by the MAK with generous financial support from OMV and OMV Petrom. Kindly supported by Rumänisches Kulturinstitut Wien.

Social Design: Urban Change

International Symposium

The ‘World Urbanization Prospects’ published by the United Nations in 2012 is expecting that in 2050 the world´s urban population will likely be of the same size as the world’s total population was in 2002. As a result, cities will increasingly be put under pressure due to densification and concentration of population, economy, capital and media as well as culture and knowledge.

The "Social Design : Urban Change" conference will discuss interdisciplinary strategic tools to address these urban challenges. It will focus on urban transformation in a rapidly urbanizing world. Aiming at connecting artistic research and theoretic sciences with hands-on practice of spatial and cultural co-production, interweaving the discourse into the very fabric of society.
