The Austrian Frederick and Lillian Kiesler Private Foundation was founded in 1997, after the Republic of Austria and the city of Vienna, with the help of numerous private benefactors, had acquired the descendant’s estate of Frederick Kiesler. It is its objective to explore the heritage of this Austro-American architect (1890-1965) and to ascribe it to the contemporary canon of architectural and artistic practice.

In his attempt to achieve a symbiosis of artistic and social domains, Kiesler was oriented towards an interdisciplinary combination of theory and practice. He was active in the various disciplines of architecture, visual arts, design and theatre. The Kiesler Foundation Vienna develops its interdisciplinary and transmedial activities based on this holistic way of thinking. Research projects, symposia and exhibitions examine Kiesler’s oeuvre and its historical impact, attending to aspects of historical inquiry, as well as of contemporary cultural discourse.
Frederick Kiesler.

Sad to hear that Eckhard Schneider passed away, a great art historian and museum director.
We remember fondly his participation in the Kiesler Prize jury in 2006 (together with Peter Cook, Gregor Eichinger, Marco De Michelis, and Monica Bonvicini).

"One of the ironies of architecture is that the simplest of forms can provoke the most profound symbolic, historical, personal and emotional associations. And this year’s #SerpentinePavilion, Black Chapel, is a very simple form indeed" @FT
