Das Werk Albert Wimmers zeichnet sich durch konsequentes Streben nach optimalen Lösungen für sich stets wandelnde Anforderungen aus. Auf den Wettbewerbserfolg für den Bau des Stadions in Innsbruck folgten Aufträge in Salzburg, Klagenfurt und Nikosia. Die Bauwerke – eine Verbindung aus Funktionalismus und Erlebnis – sind in außergewöhnlichen Fotos, Skizzen und Grundrissen dargestellt. Renommierte Sozial- und Kulturwissenschaftler sowie Architekturtheoretiker diskutieren die sozialen, ökonomischen und kulturellen Entwicklungen des Fußballs heute.

Rockets, guns, body fragments, collages, stencils, spray paints and crazy colours are the characteristic elements that populate Kiki ­Kogelnik's multicoloured universe. ­Kogel­nik was born in 1935 in Graz and grew up in Klagenfurt, Carinthia. After her time at the Vienna Academy, she left for the USA in 1961, ultimately settling in New York City in 1962. It is then no ­accident that the East-Coast Pop Art canon, ­popularised by her male counterparts at this time, ­resonates in her work. But contrary to the material games or ­pronounced brand ­fetishism of her contemporaries, the young Austrian hoisted the standard of expanding consciousness and, from Pop Art's very inception, ­viewed the relationship between the love of technology and conquest mentality with an extremely critical eye. It is possible to see this in her paintings, alternatively they can be read as critical statements, as well as a naïve contemporary witness to sixties' euphoria. Utopia is the magic watchword that sums up Kiki ­Kogelnik's formal and thematic peregrinations; she is interested in transformation, in overcoming the perplexities of space and time, and she always considered the present to be the start of a better future. Small ­wonder than that she es­poused Women's Lib and, from that point on, devoted herself to ­issues of ­gender affiliation. The ­retrospec­-tive exhibition at the Kunstverein Hamburg and the ­elaborately ­designed and printed catalogue, bear eloquent witness to all these various stages in the oeuvre of an unusual artist. Kiki Kogelnik died in Vienna in 1997.
