The exhibition focuses on the complete oeuvre of arbeitsgruppe 4, which is being shown now for the first time: a manageable number of completed projects, as well as numerous projects that could not be realised. The group may be relatively well- known - communicated primarily by the strong personalities of the protagonists Wilhelm Holzbauer, Friedrich Kurrent and Johannes Spalt - however, this notwithstanding, it has achieved an almost mythical status in the more recent architecture history of Austria. People interested in architecture know their work, but the precise details, background and context of the projects are largely still unknown. Neither any substantial reworking of source material nor any attempt at a representation from a temporal and personal distance has been undertaken to date. The Az W is now taking up this challenge, and is showing the enthralling and still relevant work of the \'3/4\'.

An extensive catalogue of 256 pages, \'arbeitsgruppe 4. Wilhelm holzbauer, Friedrich Kurrent, Johannes Spalt. 1950-1970\', is being published to accompany the exhibition. With texts by Friedrich Achleitner, Gabriele Kaiser, Siegfried Mattl, Sonja Pisarik, Ute Waditschatka and Karin Wilhelm.
