17 km

17 km builds on architectural remnants of the Nazi era and draws a parallel to the more recent right-wing populism in Austria, which, as in other countries, paved the way for authoritarian tendencies. Conservatives oriented themselves to right-wing parties and included xenophobia in their program. Just as the ruins from the Nazi era - forgotten by the public - have survived, so the Nazi ideology persisted and was cultivated in parties, fraternities and gymnastics clubs until it rose again like an undead in the form of the current right-wing populism.
With grotesque means and with the help of choreography, the parallels between the past and the recent present are pointed out.
