Haus der Philanthropie Wesen / 2017 / mixed media on oiled paper, gold and silver foil, steel frame, LED-lighting / 230 x 1200 cm |
Emmerich Weissenberger worked with the
people of the foundations and institutions of the House of Philanthropy in Vienna
- with Zero Project, an initiative of the Essl Foundation, with the People Share
Foundation, Ashoka and Blühendes Österreich - in several workshops, in order to
essentially perceive each one of them, to get to know their common being, and
to be able to display the experienced in a peace of Art. The entire 12 meter
frieze is worked out on the original workshop sheets, using red chalk,
graphite, oil chalk, gold- and silverleaf and linen oil.
