The new Permanent Exhibition at the Architekturzentrum Wien: Going against the current trend for increasing economic constraints on their collections, the new Permanent Exhibition of the Az W sets standards in the production and sharing of knowledge.

How can we rethink tourism in an era of climate crisis, wars, the threat of further pandemics, a shortage of skilled labour and an ongoing energy crisis, and steer it in a more sustainable direction? What is the role that spatial planning and architecture are playing in this? The exhibition sheds light on key aspects of tourism, such as mobility, city tourism, interdependencies with agriculture, climate change, the privatisation of natural beauty and the change in accomodation typologies, and explores the question of whether and how tourism development is planned. Above all, however, the exhibition looks at the potential for transformation.

Paris, Barcelona, Lisbon, Vienna: hopping to a different city for the weekend has become part of a lifestyle. In addition to city breaks as an economic factor and contributing to international flair, conflicts in many cities are becoming increasingly apparent.

The Az W is participating once again in the Austria-wide "Long Night of Research", which is being held at over 280 venues across the country. In all nine federal states, you can discover things that otherwise often remains hidden, with free admission: the exciting, the surprising and the astonishing!

Eva Guem and Michael Falkner support professionals in tourism with their expertise on a daily basis. In the tour they provide information on current trends and food for thought on the design of more sustainable hotel landscapes.

A presentation of contemporary and site-specific projects from the fields of architecture, urban research and planning, to mark 30 years of post-apartheid South Africa.

The focus of this event is on the relationship between agriculture and tourism: is there a symbiosis or is it a space of conflict? Who owns the cultural landscapes that tourism promotes and who is responsible for their conservation? Who is authorised to use the landscape and how? Who is benefitting at whose cost?
