Paukhofstrasse
In the middle of quite an ordinary housing estate on a steep slope, a modernist building stands somewhat concealed by tall trees. Is it a residence, a weekend home, or a bunker? The building with its matt shimmering surfaces and dark rooms was designed by the Austrian architect Friedrich Binder and built in 1968-69, to be inhabited by the Binder couple themselves.
According to the myth, Mrs. Binder almost never left the cellar following her husband’s passing.
The building stood empty for a couple of years after the death of the widow.
As the remarkable house is to be renovated and rebuilt, Hannahlisa Kunyik puts together a film crew of artists, musicians and theorists. In a performative measurement of the house, she creates a requiem for the location, an investigation of its residents, an abstract narrative that leaves the viewer with one wish: more!
