Steiner’s Closing Time: A Film and a Book

Retirement is approaching. Which is why Andrea Maria Dusl has made a very personal auteur movie with Dietmar Steiner, as part of the exhibition ‘At The End: Architecture’. The film ‘Zeitreise – 60 Jahre Architektur – Eine essayistische Intervention’ (journey through time — 60 years of architecture — an essayistic intervention) leads to different locations through his view of the world of architecture. This is compiled in a monumental book with largely unknown texts: Steiner’s Diary – über Architektur seit 1959′ (on architecture since 1959). The book is published by Park Books, edited by Kunstuniversität Linz and designed by Thomas Kussin. The intimate intentions and the principles of making the film and the book will be discussed.

Guests:

Andrea Maria Dusl, filmmaker

Eva Guttmann, Park Books
