http://www.vernissage.tv | "Hands have no tears to flow. Reports from / without architecture" is the title of Austria's contribution to this year's Venice Architecture Biennale. Commissioned by Arno Ritter, the Austrian architect Wolfgang Tschappeller has developed an exhibition that aims to shift the perception of buildings and concentrates on the people who live in them. The installation, realized by Rens Veltman and Martin Perktorld, doesn't show buildings, but digitally animated bodies that are projected onto the walls of the Austrian pavilion.

Architect Wolfgang Tschappeller was born in Dölsach / East Tyrol in 1956. Following training as a carpenter, Tschappeller studied at the University of Applied Arts Vienna and at Cornell University, Ithaca, N.Y. Since 2012, he is head of the Department of Art and Architecture of the Vienna Academy of Fine Arts. Major projects include the European Cultural Center in Aachen (Germany), and the Science Center in Belgrade (Serbia).
