Book excerpt: The architecture of Vorarlberg is documented for the future in a new publication in three languages and is thus anchored in the international discourse. The book "Constructive Provocation New Building in Vorarlberg" not only describes the development of a unique phenomenon but also directs its gaze towards the future and explores ways in which the successful "Vorarlberg model" can develop further. The book accompanying the exhibition was conceived by Reinhard Gassner together with Otto Kapfinger and Wolfgang Ritsch. In his illustrated essay Nikolaus Walter allows us insights into life in Vorarlberg, the photographs by Ignacio Martínez introduce selected representative building ensembles as "spaces of a new architecture". Nora Vorderwinkler describes in a brief excursus the backgrounds of Professor Franz Bertel and the "Baukünstler" Hans Purin, two of the precursors of new building in Vorarlberg. In an appendix diagrams and graphics present a picture of Vorarlberg in facts and figures. Information on related literature and links to network partners in the areas of architecture and the quality of living space in Vorarlberg help complete the picture
