The exhibition Up into the Unknown traces the creation of the Kunsthaus Graz, exploring thereby the relationship between visionary ideas and their realisation. A preset time frame, technical limitations, tight budgets, functional demands, and also elements of chance all changed the conception. Nevertheless, the building still speaks of utopian-visionary moments, which even today can enable the imagination to take flight.
As commissioned works, contemporary artists tackle issues of change:
What has become of certain ideas and the attitudes connected with them?
How have social demands shifted?
What has remained?
