The past is not over. It can be rediscovered and visited in archives, but some things also want to be revived. The legendary “Cabaret Fledermaus” recently experienced such an update in several files. Once (1907-13) it was a place in Vienna for emancipatory and escapist tendencies. But then it was closed, later destroyed and its experimental programme was forgotten. Its pioneering artistic design, however, remained in memory through the ages. Within the framework of an international cooperation, the Department of Art Collection and Archive of the University of Applied Arts Vienna succeeded in a stylistic 1:1 reconstruction of the famous bar room in 2019.
