Author: Schmutz, Hemma
An integral part of the Austrian postwar avant-garde, Haus-Rucker-Co was a Viennese art group founded in 1967 by Laurids Ortner, Günther Zamp Kelp & Klaus Pinter. 'Atemzonen' is the first compilation of the major parts of their work, providing an overview of their diverse oeuvre. While sharing the same binding, one part of the book opens horizontally while the other opens vertically, providing the most ideal representation of the group’s projects & creating a spatial experience for the viewer.Many of their works were at the intersection of art and architecture, with their installations involving pneumatic devices, often controlled by the participants, to explore perceptions of space. Their exploration of utopian architecture put them in a similar realm with other 1960s artist groups including Ant Farm, Archizoom, Superstudio and Coop Himmelblau.
ISBN 9783753304410. Walther König, Köln. hb. 184 pages. 550 colour ills. 17.1 x 24.8 cm.
