Program

Austrian Architecture in the 20th and 21st centuries at Architekturzentrum Wien.

Collection with a View #5Showcase to the courtyard

Architecture and urbanism are dominated today by the interests of capital, the man-made climate crisis is threatening our planet, environmental and social injustice are on the rise. The exhibition assembles examples of architecture and urban planning which show that it is possible to care for a planet in a state of crisis.

The seventh edition of the international open-air architecture film festival has a focus this year on the topic 'Critical Care. Repairing the Future'.

For the first time in an exhibition, the post-war building activities in Austria and those involved are contextualized in the discourse of the Cold War. As will be seen, the years of occupation impacted decisively on the architectural policy agenda after 1945.

Adventurous clients, innovative architects, liberal planning and building laws, and an open-minded population are behind the high density of interesting architecture produced over five decades in Vorarlberg.
