As part of Vienna Design Week 2023 AIL and ARTist, the alumni association of the University of Applied Arts, put up for sale a selection of works and Supersachen (awesome things) by former students.

Around 100 pieces of work – ranging from design objects, artworks, products, unique pieces and small editions – from 41 alumni were presented in this pop up shop project.

The leading questions are: What do former students work on these days? What ‘treasure’ do you want to take with you? Which Angewandte souvenir could you pick? Where do special editions, unique items, test products and side projects end up? Which works of art are in search of a new home and might be the cornerstones of a new and singular art and design collection?

This ‘Werkshop’ is supposed to act as a blueprint for similar future editions that will take place on a regular basis and might become an integral part of the University of Applied Arts.
