Guided tour: Walter Pichler. House next to the Smithy, Eggental | Val d'Ega
To mark the tenth anniversary of the death of the Austrian artist and architect, Walter Pichler (1936-2012), from 17 June to 4 September 2022 Museion is dedicating its Passage spaces on the ground floor of the museum and Cubo Garutti to the exhibition Walter Pichler (1936 – 2012). Architecture – Sculpture, curated by Andreas Hapkemeyer. Born in the South Tyrol, Pichler is regarded as one of the great lone anti-conformists of 1960s international art. As part of the exhibition’s accompanying programme, Museion will offer guided tours of the Haus neben der Schmiede (House next to the Smithy) in Val d’Ega / Eggental on June 30, July 28 and September 1. Haus neben der Schmiede (House next to the Smithy) is an example of a highly complex fusion of traditional, almost archaic construction methods using river stones and advanced, modern technology with its glass roof and laser-welded steel sections. The entire interior was designed by the artist himself and constructed, in part, using cutting-edge technology. The advanced technological aspect of the build, with which Walter Pichler enters into dialogue here for the first time, was made possible by his cousins, who run an internationally active steel company in Bolzano.
