Ideas for Future

Ideas for Future

Hundertwasser Ecology Workshop

How can we shape the future? Together, we’ll gather ideas for a sustainable future, discuss what ‘upcycling’ means, create new things from old objects, and design protest signs, just as Hundertwasser did.

What ideas did the artist Friedensreich Hundertwasser (1928–2000) have as far back as 50 years ago to protect the environment and nature? From green roofs, tree-planting campaigns, waste reduction and sustainable water cycles right through to protest posters – Hundertwasser was an activist, painter and designer of green architecture in the city. He recognised early on: “The great outdoors is our freedom” – and this must be preserved.

Today, global warming poses a challenge to people, animals and complex ecosystems all over the world – whether in tropical rainforests, the steppes of Central Asia or the Puszta in Hungary. How can Hundertwasser’s ideas still help to reduce heat in the city today?
