The first project phase of raising flags is titled “Nation flags of Ideas” and deals with questions of social coexistence in challenging times. museum in progress has reclaimed a place for art, the Stubenbrücke, which for many years was characterised by the lemur heads of Franz West. Along the Vienna River to Oskar Kokoschka-Platz, the public space will be made visible as an art zone in cooperation with the University of Applied Arts.
