MAK DESIGN SALON #03 ROBERT STADLER. Back in 5 minutes

26.9.–5.10.2014

The study interior for the Empire and Biedermeier eras in the MAK branch of the Geymüllerschlössel once more provides the impetus for a contemporary design intervention. In contrast to the opulent bourgeois idyll of spending one’s leisure time in a summer seat on the urban periphery, Robert Stadler reinterprets by integrating an interplay of surfaces and patterns corresponding to the Biedermeier approach to materials and decoration. Stadler’s intervention provides an occasion for a top-level panel discussion with Robert Stadler, the London authoress and curator Emily King and Jana Scholze, curator at the Victoria and Albert Museum, London, talking to Thomas Geisler, Chief Curator MAK Collection Design. With the friendly support of the Dorotheum in Vienna.
