Based on Biedermeier art, which is determined by the abstraction of forms, ornament and color, Clegg & Guttmann interpret the ensemble of the MAK Geymüllerschlössel branch as a background for pointed, specially illuminated scenic tableaux accompanied by music and spoken text Biedermeier furniture, objects, instruments and materials.
Published on the occasion of the exhibition of the same name (September 25th - December 4th, 2016) at the MAK branch Geymüllerschlössel, Vienna.
A selected compilation of interviews with experts - such as the art historians Christian Witt-Dörring and Markus Neuwirth, the artist Christian Mayer and the MAK curators Rainald Franz, Sebastian Hackenschmidt, Barbara Karl and Elisabeth Schmuttermeier - brings together cultural codes of applied art, interiors and close to Biedermeier architecture.
