Über Tourismus / Toourism is an exhibition held at the Architekturzentrum Wien.
Tourism has been growing in intensity for decades, and has become an integral part of our Western lifestyle. It has created added value, prosperity and cosmopolitanism in even the most remote regions, thus halting out-migration. Tourism also promotes local cultural events and, ideally, tolerance and education. That is the upside of tourism. On the downside are negative effects such as crowds, the impact on the environment, and rising land prices.
The graphic design picks up on these contrasts and draws an arc of tension between visual overcrowding and emptiness. The exhibition catalog was published by Park Books.
