Visionary Spaces. Walter Pichler meets Frederick Kiesler

Edited by Stella Rollig, Katia Baudin, Verena Gamper 2024

The design of the eponymous exhibition at the Belvedere in Vienna was created by the artist Sonia Leimer. Essential insights were contributed by Elfi Tripamer and Anna Tripamer. This project represents a dialog perhaps more between art historians than between the two interdisciplinary creators.

The comprehensive nearly 300-page book seeks to establish a connection despite the very different aesthetic and design perspective of both contributors. Among others, it also takes into account Walter Pichler’s first stationary sculpture, which he realized in 1971 as part of Peter Noever’s land art project “Die Grube / The Pit".
