Who can attend:
UNIVERSITIES: Academic, teaching, non-teaching, and administrative staff

Dear students,
dear lecturers,
dear staff members,

First of all, we would like to thank you for your great commitment and support of the Corona measures during the last three semesters! This made it possible, during the time when access to Covid vaccinations was very limited, for university operations to run as smoothly as possible.

This summer, the Institute of Conservation at Angewandte together with three other European universities joined forces in an Erasmus+ Strategic Partnership (CHePiCC online); the aim is to translate the state-of-art research on climate change and cultural heritage protection into distance and blended learning programmes to provide capacity building for teachers and learners.

In 2019 a devastating earthquake hit Albania and severely damaged significant national cultural properties. At the request of UNOPS, an operational arm of the United Nations, Prof. Gabriela Krist and her colleagues of the Institute of Conservation provide consultancy and expertise on conservation-restoration of earthquake-damaged monuments, collection care and inventory.

The annual Kunsthalle Wien Prize is awarded by Kunsthalle Wien in cooperation with the University of Applied Arts Vienna and the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna and given out for the seventh time in 2021. Despite the continuing pandemic-related restrictions on the two educational institutions’ operations and the difficult working situation for the graduates, this year’s jury once again reviewed and discussed over a hundred diploma and master’s projects in visual and media art and selected eight winning entries.

The Angewandte sincerely congratulates all winners.
