Chainmail I
When doing the research on Art Deco, I found this chainmail necklace. Chainmail is a recurrent trend in jewelry and right now quite en vogue.
A very talented createur of chainmail jewelry is the Italian goldsmith Francesco Pavan, whose works can be found in this fabulous publication by the gallery ‘Slavik’: Art Meets Jewellery.
The gallery ‘Slavik’ focuses on international contemporary jewelry art and is located in the first district of Vienna. Its current exhibition is titled ‘A winter journey’ and works by Stefano Marchetti, Helfried Kodré, Lisa J. Defner, Jacqueline Ryan Will are on display.

Monumental
Monument in the ‘Schweizergarten’
The ‘Schweizergarten’ (Swiss Garden) is a park in the third district of Vienna, that was opened on the 5th June 1906 as ‘Maria Josefa Park’ (Maria Josefa was a member of the imperial family). The park was designed in the style of an English landscape garden.
1920 the park was renamed into its actual name. This was out of gratitude for the generous assistance of Switzerland after the end of World War I.

Guenther Domenig
The so-called Domenig House was designed by the architect Günther Domenig, a key protagonist of Deconstructivism in Austria. It was built from 1975 to 1979 as a local branch of the ‘Zentralsparkasse und Kommerzialbank Wien’ (banking institution).
Today it houses the Echo Media House and a gallery. The reinforced concrete building caused a heated debate when it was opened, because of its convex, crushed looking façade. Inside the building many curved elements can be found, that often had been improvised during construction.
