KunstHausWien

"The KunstHausWien, with it's bulging ceramics, lack of straight lines and colourful tilework, is another of Hundertwasser's inventive creations. The art house is something of a paean in honor of Hundertwasser, displaying his paintings, graphics, tapestry, philosophy, ecology and architecture. His vivid paintings are as distinctive as his diverse building projects. Hundertwasser's quotes are everywhere..." -guide book

my favorite ones:
"The line I trace with my feet to the museum is more important and more beautiful than the lines drawn upon the walls."
"The straight line is God less." & "With graphic art, I enter a paradise which I cannot enter with my brush"

in the bathroom.. cameras aren't allowed, but I wanted to document at least something!
too bad photos from the WC can't convey the magic and beauty of this place!

& roof of the cafe... covered in grass
