Walter Pichler
Twenty sketches from the archives, ca. 1961-63
Architecture is a brutal matter . It crushes those who cannot stand it, said WalterPichler. Between 1961 and 1963, the sculptor and designer working in collaboration with the architectHans Hollein, and drawing on conversations with Raimund Abraham and Friedrich Achleitner,introduced a radically adventurous new plasticity to architecture, putting forward imaginary
prototypes in which cities might be buried underground as single units or dispersed as continuoussculptural topographies in the landscape whose dwellings might consist of communication cells,emotive caves or watch towers and where sacred spaces would be constructed from the interstices
between colliding monumental forms.

As some years later with Superstudio (whose proposals were greatly influenced by Pichersdrawings), these are propositions of studied ambiguity. Questions rather than solutions, they are madeto fall on a deliberately uncertain line between art and architecture, the mechanistic and the
biomorphic, the domineering and the humane, the ironic and the ideal.
