Veronika Kellndorfer: Dialogue with Silver Lake. Metabolism of Architecture at Neutra VDL House
Information
2003 Villa Aurora fellow Veronika Kellndorfer's site-specific exhibition Dialogue with Silver Lake. Metabolism of Architecture at the Neutra VDL House explores the idea that architecture serves as a preservation of history. After the opening on June 3, 2023, tours of the exhibition can be booked on Saturdays.
Based on the idea that history is stored in buildings, Veronika Kellndorfer captures traces of time in architecture and transfers them into an expanded concept of the pictorial idea. She investigates how the past manifests itself in buildings and how these traces can be transformed into images of architectural spaces. Her work raises essential questions concerning representation and the capacity of art to create accurate and evocative images of architecture. After a research stay in the Neutra VDL House in March 2022, Kellndorfer has produced a collection of new works that respond to the site's context, history, and design.
