"Super Summer" was organized by the Vienna City Festival in 1976 and took place at the main outdoor market, the Naschmarkt. As part of the festival, architects and visual artists created actions and installations in public space.
The architecture office Coop Himmelblau, for instance, invited residents to see the city from a different perspective. To this end they erected four 13-meter structures and spanned a 17-by-17 meter Cloud Backdrop between them.
The Haus-Rucker-Co team built the Inclined Plane. The goal of the installation was to visually divide the open space stretching along the left and the right vaulted banks of the Wien River into two zones. The black plane pointed in the direction of the city center, while the white one stretched away from it.
The object built by Missing Link, titled Asyleum, was an oversized hat which could be entered in order to view a series of photographs. The images were taken in manholes and vaults of the Wien River around and below the Naschmarkt in the summer of 1908. They depicted the life and quarters of the homeless, for whom a hat was synonymous to a roof over their heads. In 1977 the hat-object was moved to a playground in the Prater Park to be used as a pavilion.
Superstudio were represented with a project titled Memories for Vienna, while Wall-Corner-Element, a project by Rolan Goeschl, was never realized.
Christo exhibited his work at the Museum of 20th Century.
