Constructive dissolution. On a radical museum concept for the Dollfuß birthplace and its abrupt end

Abstract

New focal point of OeZG: examining recent developments and debates in Austria’s museum and exhibition landscape.
In their essay, Remigio Gazzari, Christian Rabl, and Johanna Zechner explore the planned but ultimately unrealized redesign of the birthplace of Austrofascist chancellor Engelbert Dollfuß in Texingtal, Lower Austria. They offer direct insights into the political controversies surrounding the former museum and its abrupt closure.
