Further information
In the context of "Happy Birthday, Friendly Alien! 10 years Kunsthaus Graz"
The Viennese artist Gilbert Bretterbauer is installing the textile work Raumtextil Funktion & Empfindung, made specifically for the Kunsthaus Graz, in Space04 and Cafe iKU. It lends the space a haptic quality, makes it physically tangible and thus turns it into a textile spatial sculpture.
