128 years after the death of Bruckner, Peter Androsch lays the composer out again. In the Mount of Olives Chapel on the north-eastern side of the parish church in Linz, where Bruckner was the organist for 13 years. Six guardian angels watch over him. They are his siblings who died at a tender age. The shrine is illuminated five times a day.

This is a place where everything takes infinitely long, it is infinitely quiet, a place where mystery is strong. In this enchanted glade, the ten symphonies of Anton Bruckner resonate 666 times longer. A pause of one sole minute in Bruckner's music becomes a silence of eleven hours and six minutes. The rustling of the leaves, birdsong, the creaking of trees and the horns of distant ships are the real sound of Bruckner, namely the sound for him. An all-pervading mystery from 13 February till 10 November 2024.

A new educational concept expands the sensory experience with the help of excitingly designed stations, playful approaches for young hikers, in-depth and remarkable information, digital and analog - and lots of music.

At the age of 17 when Bruckner himself was not that much older than his pupils, he was sent to Windhaag in the Bohemian Forest as a trained school assistant where he was able to enjoy as yet unknown freedoms. He did, however, also have to fulfill and perform a wide range of tasks and services which involved some hardship on his part.
An information space in the old school, which is only semi-public but open at the top, is a reminder of this. This was Bruckner's workplace in Windhaag, which, at the instigation of the owner, Irmgard Quass, is now a Bruckner place of learning and remembrance in one. The exhibition room is to be redesigned by Anton Bruckner 2024.

From 1 June 2024, the education room will be accessible to school classes:

The relationship between Anton Bruckner and Richard Wagner has often been ridiculed in anecdotes, stylised in both a positive and negative manner and leaves behind an array of questions. The anniversary exhibition to mark the 200th anniversary of Bruckner's birth at the Richard Wagner Sites in Graupa attempts to answer these. In addition to original letters from Bruckner, the handwritten copy of the Third Symphony dedicated to Wagner is the highlight of the exhibition.
A visit to the exhibition is included in the entrance fee to the museum.

Here you will find artistic memorabilia, devotional objects and relics of Anton Bruckner, the giant of music, the door opener to modernity - developed by Peter Androsch (peterandrosch.at). We re-member him. We bring Anton Bruckner back inside, we make him a member of our world again. We think of him so strongly that he is alive again: Anton Bruckner - Dead Man Walking.

REMEMBER BRUCKNER

The special exhibition deals, among other things, with the historical documents that record Anton Bruckner's relationship with Perg.

A fragmentary account is given of the ways in which the musician, Anton Bruckner, was honoured in Perg in the decades following his death through the naming of a street, the hanging of a memorial plaque, in specialist lectures or as part of church tours. An annual programme, which accompanies the exhibition, is directed at the inhabitants of the town and district of Perg inviting them to visit the exhibition.

Perg is Bruckner's town because
- Anton Bruckner's great-grandmother was the daughter of a millstone cutter from Perg
- Bruckner had personal friends or was acquainted with several people from Perg (in particular the Mayor, Karl Terpinitz, and the schoolmaster, Kirchhofer) and Anton Bruckner was thus commissioned to build a new organ in the parish church of Perg,
- Anton Bruckner dedicated the Perg Prelude to the leather goods' merchant, Josef Diernhofer,
- Anton Bruckner set the Liedertafel motto to music written by the Pergkirchen priest, Andreas Mittermayr.

Franz Armbruster, a theater painter, analyses the characters of actors and singers as well as their roles in drawings. He was also particularly interested in the musicians, who are invisible in the orchestra pit but make a significant contribution to the musical theatre. Armbruster used a technique in which he captured various aspects simultaneously on paper and whisked them into a harmonious whole. Powerful condensations alternate with loose lines to create tension and physicality. The underlying musical notation encourages the "cooperation" of the viewer. The cycle and calendar were presented at the Bruckner Haus in 1989, as the basic sheet music was taken from Bruckner works and the musicians were members of the Bruckner Orchestra. Armbruster used copies of sheet music as a background for a lithograph cycle from which the present calendar was created.

The Anton Bruckner Centrum is accessible for everyone.

Anton Bruckner felt at home in St. Florian Abbey where he was a choirboy. He was taught here and later taught himself. He also played the organ on the "Krismannin" in the collegiate church. In this place of the world, he searched for his own identity as an artist. He also returned here for good on his very last journey. At the abbey, for the very first time, the Upper Austrian KulturEXPO Anton Bruckner 2024 exhibition showcases the various stages of the composer's life and work. It features a large number of documents from the abbey's archives. Three monumental pavilions in the abbey courtyard invite visitors to experience Bruckner's dreams and visions for themeselves through exciting multimedia presentations.

Until October 27, the exhibition "How it all began. Bruckner's Visions" is open for you. Take advantage of the last opening days in the Anton Bruckner Year 2024 with free admission.

The immersive sound space "Being Anton" at the Ars Electronica Center in Linz offers visitors the opportunity to explore Bruckner's world of sound in a completely new way. After all, when we think of Anton Bruckner, we usually think of his legacy, i.e. Bruckner's music and his sounds. But what soundscape surrounded Bruckner himself? What did he listen to in his everyday life? His life was characterized by many social upheavals triggered by the industrial revolution. The steam engine, for example, which was used in steam trains and steamships, not only changed people's mobility options at an unprecedented pace, but also brought a completely new soundscape into the world.
The installation "Being Anton", developed by the Ars Electronica Futurelab, allows visitors to immerse themselves in this world of sound that surrounded Anton Bruckner and his contemporaries. The link with examples from Bruckner's musical oeuvre creates points of contact between the two sound worlds.

Anton Bruckner is not just a local phenomenon in Upper-Austria. He is a world-renowned and recognised "great" as a musician. Who was this man, in whose honour an entire year has been declared the year of Bruckner in Linz and Upper-Austria 200 years after his birth?

The exhibition embarks on a journey into Bruckner's past, exploring the set pieces that remain or have emerged over time and placing them in new contexts. We encounter an introverted nerd somewhere between provincial dust and the big city, an unrecognised genius searching for love. The life and work of the musical genius are both illuminated and critically questioned from today's point of view. Views, original artifacts and documents, and contemporary visualisations shed new light on a great musician. In six themed rooms, the story of Bruckner is retold and made tangible.

BETWEEN SOUND, ART AND ANTON BRUCKNER!
The KUVA Art Symposium is a format in which the two curators, Michaela Reisenberger and Bibiana Weber, invited visual artists to set up their studios for several days in April 2024 on the premises of Turm 9 - Stadtmuseum. Work was carried out in public on site during the so-called work days on the given theme "Anton between the worlds" around Anton Bruckner. The works created during the symposium will be presented in the special exhibition "Anton zwischen den Welten".

The artists fan out the canon of visual and aural works and take a contemporary look at Anton Bruckner. The exhibition organisers commissioned selected sound artists to develop compositions for the works in the show which refer to the art in musical terms. The pieces commissioned for the sound mediation entries will be accessible in the exhibition in the form of sound stations.

SOUND
Crystn Hunt Akron, Lylit, Verena Zeiner, Serverin Trogbacher, Michael Mayr, Patrik Huber and Gigi Gratt.

ART
Hanna Heidt, Mariana Nikolai Pacheva, Marion Reisinger, Edith Stauber, Janine Weger, Stefan Esterbauer, Judith Musil and Tibor Kovács

What makes up the gigantic, imposing sound of a Bruckner symphony? Visitors can approach this question in a playful way with "Playing Anton" in Deep Space 8K at the Ars Electronica Center: Playing together with other visitors, they can constantly re-form the various instrumental groups of the Bruckner Orchestra Linz thanks to the innovative interaction technology of Deep Space 8K. Various facets of the musical and compositional perception of Bruckner's music are illuminated, enhanced by impressive 3D visualizations.
For example, "Playing Anton" - developed by the Ars Electronica Futurelab - allows visitors to immerse themselves visually and musically in Anton Bruckner's impressive world of sound together with the Bruckner Orchestra Linz and interactively explore its special features. Not just as listeners in front of the stage, but right in the middle of the orchestra.
