EVENT LANGUAGE: GERMAN/ENGLISH
A place is bidding farewell, a search is coming to an end:
With the closing of “The Endless Search” and our departure from Mariahilfer Straße, we invite you to an evening program, merging art and sound as part of VIENNA ART WEEK:
with texts by Frederick Kiesler, read by Miriam Stoney, music by Stefan Grimus.
The evening is hosted by Director Gerd Zillner.
Cultural Nomads
We are nomads-cultural nomads. Or better: Nomads of civilization. Moving from one apartment to another, from one town to another, or across borders into different lands.
Seeking opportunities and quitting them of they fulfill their promise fast. We live an emergency life, a deadline life.

Österreichische Friedrich und Lillian Kiesler-Privatstiftung
The Austrian Frederick and Lillian Kiesler Private Foundation was established in 1997 with the acquisition of the estate of Frederick Kiesler (1890-1965) by the Republic of Austria and the City of Vienna with the help of numerous private donors. Its mission is to research the legacy of the Austro-American architect and to inscribe it in current architectural and artistic production.
