As part of the festival, the University of Applied
Arts Vienna presents each year final projects, theses and a diverse range of projects in art, design and research in curated
exhibitions and programmes. Oskar-Kokoschka-Platz will be closed to traffic – for the four days of the festival, it will serve
as a gathering place, a meeting point for guided tours, a stage and an exhibition venue. With unfinished business,
a multifaceted intervention by the Department of Language Art, a space of words, languages and speech will be created there.
The
Angewandte festival offers an insight into current discourses in art, design, architecture and society; a multidisciplinary
programme ties in with the exhibitions and demonstrates how the University of Applied Arts Vienna provides cross-disciplinary
impulses for society.
