What is today known as the Vienna international Airport was originally erected in 1954, and has since been extensively expanded. Between 2006 and 2011, the annual number of passengers using the airport rose from 17 to over 21 million. In order to ensure the safety of the growing numbers of passengers, and to deliver state-of-the-art logistics for freight transport, the decision was made to fundamentally restructure the airport. With camera in hand, the architect, artist and photographer roman bšnsch has documented this metamorphosis of one of Europe s largest construction projects from the outset. This work presents his photographs in book form for the first time, complemented by additional photography from Robert Gruber and larry R. Williams. An essay by Ralph Knickmeier and further texts by R. Hasler, S. Illichmann, R. Keiser, P. Kleemann, P. Mayerhofer, T. D. Trummer and N. Steiner round out the book.
