The route, which is around five kilometres long, runs from Goldschlagstraße via the Neubaugürtel, Mariahilfer Straße and the Ring to the Künstlerhaus, and on via Karlsplatz and the Secession to the IG Bildende Kunst on Gumpendorfer Straße. The individual stops combine historical research, performative interventions and artistic urban exploration as part of an interactive film production in public spaces.
