In 1942, art collector Peggy Guggenheim invited Friedrich Kiesler to design her New York art gallery “Art of This Century”. Through an impressive combination of architecture and art, Kiesler was able to develop an extraordinary design that yielded radical new forms and exhibition design approaches. The exhibition at Guggenheim Collection, Venice, showed numerous archive materials consisting of sketches, photos, letters, catalogues, clippings, etc. The interactive presentation of these materials is based on an installation concept developed by casino.container, Cologne, for the Museum of Modern Art in Frankfurt, which enables a very dense presentation of approx. 200 objects in a tiny space.
