Our city! – The city without?

May 8, 2018

73 years.  A lifetime.  Just one lifetime.  That is how long (or short) ago the liberation of the Austrian concentration camp at Mauthausen took place, on 6 May 1945 –  one of several such death camps for people of Jewish heritage and other groups whom the terror regime of the National Socialists considered undesirables.   So … More Our city! – The city without?

The annual Christmas market on Stefansplatz is being watched from up high by the St. Stephen's gargoyles. Another unusual perspective I was able to shoot thanks to a special photo walk with @nelo_ruber and @domorganistwien. Thank you! . #nodrone #christmasmarket #ststephenscathedral #stephansdom #cathedral #rooftop #gothicarchitecture #viennaroofs #wienvonoben #wienmalanders #gargoyle #archi_focus_on #1000placestoseeinvienna #stephansdomwien #steffl #wienliebe #exploremore #viennatouristboard #stadtwien #viennaarchitecture #architecturephotography #archilover #explorevienna #meinwien #wiennurduallein #seeninwien #viennaclassics #igersvienna #igersaustria #thecuriouscameraclub
230,000 colorful glazed shingles make the cathedral roof of St. Stephen´s unique. The sloping roof has an extreme angle of 80 ° at the steepest points . #gothicarchitecture #architecturephotography #vienna #archi_focus_on #viennarooftops #wienvonoben #welovevienna #loveaustria #wienliebe #wonderlustvienna #stadtwien #wienmalanders #viennatouristboard #visitvienna #viennaclassic #viennafromabove #1000placestoseeinvienna #rooftops #stephansdom #ststephenscathedral #cathedral #catholicchurch #churches #viennaclassics #igersvienna #igersaustria #thecuriouscameraclub
Vienna´s symbol, St. Stephen´s Cathedral, a place every tourist knows, from the roof gallery. It is one of the most important Gothic structures in Austria. The current  Romanesque and Gothic form of the cathedral was largely initiated by Duke Rudolf IV (1339–1365) and stands on the ruins of two earlier churches, the first a parish church consecrated in 1147. On the roof of St. Stephen's Cathedral, colorful roof tiles were laid to create the Royal and Imperial double-headed eagle and the coat of arms of the city of Vienna. Thanks to an invitation by a friend with connections, @nelo_ruber , I was able to see it from unusual angles a few weeks ago.  So in this series, I will show you just a small selection of the photos I took that evening . #ststephenscathedral #stephansdom #cathedral #rooftop #gothicarchitecture #viennaroofs #wienvonoben #archi_focus_on #1000placestoseeinvienna #stephansdomwien #steffl #wienliebe #exploremore #documentyourdays #adayinthelife #viennatouristboard #stadtwien #viennaarchitecture #architecturephotography #archilover #thisisvienna #theprettycity #explorevienna #meinwien #wiennurduallein #seeninwien #viennaclassics #igersvienna #igersaustria #thecuriouscameraclub
Lois Renner, live and in miniature. His very colourfully exuberant paintings have a baroque feel for me. If you want to see more of my impressions from @viennaartweek 2019, have a look at the blog (🔗 in bio) . #ViennaArtWeek #viennaartweek2019 #MakingTruth #loisrenner #art #artweek #contemporaryart #artistportrait #contemporaryartist #candidportrait #fineart #thecuriouscameraclub #femalephotographersvienna #igersVienna #igersaustria @igersaustria.at @igersvienna
The artist Nives Widauer's studio, herself, and last but not least, the artist Ursula Huebner with some of her work, all seen during open studio days at @viennaartweek More photos and info in my latest blog post (hot off the press, 🔗 in bio) . #niveswidauer #ursulahuebner . #ViennaArtWeek #viennaartweek2019 #MakingTruth #art #artweek #contemporaryart #artistportrait #contemporaryartist #candidportrait #fineart #thecuriouscameraclub #femalephotographersvienna #igersVienna #igersaustria @viennaartweek @igersaustria.at @igersvienna @niveswidauer @usholino
Back to art.  What a privilege to be able to visit contemporary artists in their home.  During Vienna Art Week (15-22 November 2019), some of them opened their studios and their homes to visitors and were quite happy to talk to them about their art.  During an #instawalk with @igersvienna and @igersaustria I had a chance to do just that, so in this next series I will show you some of the artists and art I was able to see.  The motto of this year´s art week was "Making Truth". Here we have Martin Schnur in his studio, and one of his paintings, and Esther Vörösmarty in her kitchen, with a photo by her on the wall and two foam "helmets" she produced (as she is also a motorbike rider) . #ViennaArtWeek #viennaartweek2019 #MakingTruth #martinschnur #esthervoeroesmarty #art #artweek #contemporaryart #artistportrait #contemporaryartist #candidportrait #fineart #thecuriouscameraclub #femalephotographersvienna #igersVienna #igersaustria @viennaartweek @igersaustria.at @igersvienna @esthervoeroesmarty
