A MORE HUMAN ARCHITECTURE IN HARMONY WITH NATURE

20 models of Hundertwasser’s architectural projects, realised worldwide, were presented for the first time.

As early as the 1950s Hundertwasser began to deal with the problems of architecture. Hundertwasser’s architecture is an architecture that does not correspond to the usual clichés and norms, it is an adventure in modern times, a journey into the land of creative architecture.

Hundertwasser showed a way out to the dead-end in modern architecture.

Hundertwasser’s architectural work demonstrates his pledge for diversity instead of monotony, for organic forms and for the uncontrolled irregularities, for spontaneous vegetation, for a life in harmony with nature and for all beauty.

Hundertwasser was convinced that beauty is a panacea.
