Modern art in Graz

The Kunsthaus in Graz is also the favourite of Christa Campigli

A few years ago I visited Graz with my two sons. The older one went off to discover the place via its extensive tram network. I visited the Kunsthaus with my younger son. The building- also called the “blaue Blase” by locals is a very interesting structure, reminding me of an organ in the human body with bits of blood vessels sticking out. One of the several exhibitions there was by the late Italian architect and designer Colombo. My son liked his furniture because it was compact and modern looking. Parts of it could slide back easily in some cupboard making it look like a capsule. One also had good views of the city from its viewing platform. So this modern museum was a success – even for a young teenager.
