Hans Hollein

Press release

This exhibition offers an exceptional insight into the artistic practice of Austrian architect, artist, designer, theorist and Pritzker Prize winner Hans Hollein (1934–2014). Famously declaring that ‘everything is architecture’, he pioneered an expansion of the very concept of architecture. The exhibition presents a selection of visionary architectural drawings and conceptual works, as well as objects and artefacts, that reimagine spaces, structures, cities and their communicative possibilities. Spanning the 1960s, the works are situated at a decisive period in Hollein’s early career that established him at the forefront of the international avant-garde.
