Almost 50 years after its consecration Fritz Wotruba’s Church of the Holy Trinity in Vienna still remains one of the most fascinating church buildings of the 20th century. Made up of 152 individually cast concrete blocks it is a puzzling structure oscillating between architecture and sculpture, the open and the closed. In 2021/22 the Belvedere21 in Vienna with „Wotruba. Himmelwärts - Die Kirche auf dem Georgenberg“ dedicated an entire exhibition to the building, its creator and the conflictual genesis of it. It was accompanied by the present and highly insightful catalogue published by Verlag der Buchhandlung Walther und Franz König that on the one hand recounts the protracted and conflict-laden history of the church but on the other hand also locates it within postwar church architecture and Wotruba’s oeuvre. Within the latter it marks a high point that crowns a development towards dissolving the figure in an architectural form and more than a decade of continued dedication. Sadly Wotruba didn’t see the completion of the church as he untimely died in 1975. Besides a highly insightful exegesis of the church the catalogue also contains a wealth of drawings and contemporary photographs that document the coming to life of the building on site and in the artist’s imagination, a deeply fascinating process that nonetheless was very critically and at times even hostilely received by both the public and the expert audience. The waves have calmed over the past four and a half decades and Wotruba’s church now ranks among the relevant sites to see in Vienna, a development that the Belvedere’s exhibition will further contribute to as it deepens the understanding of and hopefully also the love for this unique church.

Many architects during their career develop a particular language, a trademark clients and the public can rely on. Others, like Swiss architect Heinrich Graf (1930-2010), intentionally avoid it but still leave a remarkable oeuvre. Graf, based and primarily active in St. Gallen, for each building task sought an appropriate answer, an approach that is strikingly apparent in the four buildings he realized in the old town of St. Gallen: in a contemporary form Graf reacted to the historic surroundings, the architectural context and made his buildings blend right. On the other hand hand he also designed bold buildings that confidently dominated their surroundings: residential towers like the Achslen and the Grossacker shopping center, both located in St. Gallen, are large scale projects that Graf equipped with twists and a playfulness rarely seen in these typologies.

Heinrich Graf’s creativity in general didn’t stop at the surface of a building but naturally also included interiors, shop fittings and furniture, all of them idiosyncratic designs that demonstrate Graf’s ability to create spectacular and atmospheric spaces. This talent was also recognized by a number of clients who had Heinrich Graf design and build their private residences and vacation homes, the most prominent of these clients being the Austrian actor O.W. Fischer who commissioned Graf to design a spectacular residence in Vernate, Switzerland.

All of these projects and actually the entirety of Graf’s oeuvre are covered in Katrin Eberhard’s excellent monograph „Heinrich Graf 1930-2010: Bauten Projekte Interieurs“, published by Scheidegger & Spiess in 2011: profusely illustrated with photographs and plans, the book offers a stunning overview of the architect’s work and at the same time throws the reader back into a very different past. Especially in the 1960s and 1970s Graf tailored to the optimistic Zeitgeist and provided playful solutions for the building tasks of his time and the book formidably documents them. Warmly recommended!
