Austria: Kunsthaus Graz

Last Tuesday I got three postcards from Austria.

One of them shows the Kunsthaus Graz. The Kunsthaus Graz was built as part of the European Capital of Culture celebrations in 2003 and shows art from the 1960s and onwards as part of the Universalmuseum Joanneum, but only shows the art and does not collect it. The building was designed in the style of the Blobitecture and quickly became a landmark of Graz. Often it is called Friendly Alien. 


The Kunsthaus Graz is shown on this new matching stamp. It was issued on 20th August 2020 and is part of a stamp series on modern architecture.


Thank You very much Anita!
