Andreas Fogarasi’s presentation investigates the remains of Graz’s Vorklinik, the Post-Brutalist medical faculty building torn down in 2023. Fogarasi’s work breaks the building further down into its aesthetic components and materials. The artist thus paints an abstract portrait of a specific urban situation, reduced to materiality, colors, and tactile qualities. Spare parts of Minoriten’s historic roof, displayed on a plinth, highlight the roofscape of the city as a contested ground for real estate development and profit.
