The Genesis of the Project

On the occasion of the 70th anniversary of the annexation of Austria in March 2008, Verein Grundstein’s inquiry into the history of the Jewish Dichter family culminated in the placement of three advertising pillars on Yppenplatz in Vienna’s Ottakring district, showcasing relevant works by various artists. The project, “committed to the memory of all victims of National Socialism”, is continued to this day.
