Graz is one jewel richer
Neutorgasse 46 shines in new luster
"Graz is one point of interest richer." These words were heard often on May 11 at the opening celebration of the newly converted, former imperial postal headquarters of Graz. Mag. Siegfried Nagl, mayor of Graz, phrased it similarly in his opening remarks in front of 150 guests. No wonder: Even from a distance, the object Neutorgasse 46 in downtown Graz impresses with its magnificent, imperial façade. From now on the interior of this completely renovated object is equally impressive and magnificent as well.
Street art gets a roof
Urban Art-Exhibition from 11 to 25 May
What would Vienna be without art? Art is everywhere. In museums and splendid buildings anyway, but also on the streets: Street art and graffiti are already integral part in public spaces and in the vibrant city life. This topic is now part and parcel of an internationally recognized exhibition in Vienna. "Escape the Golden Cage" presents from 11 to 25 May 2012 the most renowned urban art artists from home and abroad in the imperial telegraph office. The building, located at “Börseplatz”, next to the Vienna Stock Exchange, is provided from the curators of Immovate.
Moving History
Immovate takes part in old-timer rallye
One cannot deny that Immovate has somewhat of a penchant for "historical things". It is well-known that Immovate is crazy about historical buildings. But not only historical buildings: Immovate was involved as a sponsor of the old-timer rallye in Gamlitz, the "Südsteiermark-Classic" from April 26 – 28, 2012; it even had its own car in the event-- a 1969 MG convertible which was a magnificent sight from start to finish– as is usual with Immovate’s objects. And of course, the old-timer was in equally good shape, bringing the drivers safely across the finish line.
