KUNST IM BAU is a permanent art project in a recently completed, subsidized residential housing unit for roughly one thousand occupants.
22 artists were invited to place work on selected wall surfaces in areas accessible to all tenants and visitors. The majority of the work was created within the last six months specifically for this building.
The extensive size of the building but also the particular architectural breakdown into ''neighborhoods,'' according to which the allocated wall surfaces are distributed throughout the building, presents an opportunity to bring very different artistic positions together in one project. Because of the physical distance between the individual works, they can be viewed as uninfluenced by one another and perceived all the more strongly in the context of their immediate surroundings.
This strategy, which to some extent continues the building's fundamental concept, creates a basis for the broadest possible range of themes, which – as it turns out – goes well beyond the expected. A special feature of the project is the uniform technique with which all the work has been realized: large-scale prints, mounted directly to the wall. The use of this technique was a consideration in the selection and design of the works, and was also addressed in the work of several artists.
