Vienna`s Artistic Oasis Celebrates Its Tenth Anniversary
The Museums Quartier is one of the world`s largest artistic and cultural spaces, and the urbane living room at the heart of the Austrian capital. This year, Vienna`s meeting place for those with a passion for culture is celebrating the tenth anniversary of its opening with a wide range of events – from Austria`s first and only open-air cartoon exhibition (to 31 July) through the “Sound Heaven” (10 June to 1 October) to the great Open Air Festival, with live music acts and a spectacular 3-D projection (30 June).
Homage To The Rat Pack
They sing, swing and step: Reamonn`s Rea Garvey, Xavier Naidoo, Sasha and comedy star Michael Mittermeier continue their smash hit tour with the Big Band, and are guesting at the Wiener Stadthalle on 9 and 10 December. “Alive and Swingin`” is the name of their tribute to the legendary appearances by Sammy Davis Jr., Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and Joey Bishop in the early1960s. So the public can look forward to a musical journey back in time this winter. Coot.
Visionary And Lateral Thinker
From 30 June to 3 October, the Archi- tekturzentrum Wien is devoting a show entitled “It still amazes me that / became an architect” to architect and artist Alexander Brodsky. The show is designed to offer an insight into the “other Moscow”, which contrasts starkly with Russia`s breakneck, often untamed development elsewhere. Brodsky`s architecture is low-key by comparison, and deeply-rooted in the traditional building culture of the country. For the Architekturzentrum Wien, he is putting into practice a “Total Installation” incorporating the exhibition hall, which is designed to put its spell on visitors.
