Kunsthotel Fuchspalast

更多

The Art Hotel Fuchspalast was designed by the Austrian painter, sculptor, philosopher and visionary Professor Ernst Fuchs. He is considered a co-founder of the Vienna School of Fantastic Realism, a term coined in the 1950s for a movement in Austrian art close to Surrealism. His painting style is based on the technical perfection of the Old Masters, the motifs are fantastic-unreal creations, sometimes with shocking, apocalyptic content. Magnificent colours, unusual forms, Tiffany glass on the outer facade – the Kunsthotel Fuchspalast is a prime example of fantastic architecture. Today’s hotel, which was ceremonially opened in 1998, was formerly the old building of the Chamber of Labour with the former hotel “Der Stern”. On the south-facing exterior façade you can still see 6 parts of the former frescos.
