As part of the ‘Month of Photography’ the Az W is presenting an exhibition of the second Archicard edition. In 2002 the Archicard Edition 01 directed its attention to the anonymous architecture of Austria, in 2004 the Edition 02 focuses on the term ‘icon’. The different approaches to photographing architecture manifest themselves in the field of tension between canon and anti-canon, between the sanctioned icons of Austrian architecture and the capturing in images of transitions, or buildings that have been over-exposed in the media.
