Art installations

Installations create altered perceptions of space or striking interventions in public space and thus have something in common with architecture in some respects.

In recent decades, installation art has become increasingly established as a form of artistic expression. The three-dimensional works create altered perceptions of space or striking interventions in public space, thus in a number of respects they have something in common with architecture.

A variety of remarkable installations are front and centre for anyone visiting BUWOG’s new Customer and Administrative Centre. A stele designed by Brigitte Kowanz marks the entrance. Created in 2001, the engraved steel band with its hidden message is displayed in an ideal spot in the newly designed pedestrian zone and is prominently placed here as a symbol of BUWOG’s cultural commitment.
