The bonds between the literary communities of Austria and the UK were forged deeply in the shadow of WWII but existed, palpably, in the years before and after. Many of Austria’s most considerable and original authors choose the UK as their new home throughout the last century and this event celebrates those writers.

Seven contemporary artists will be asked to respond to the lives and works of Erich Fried, Mela Hartwig, Alfred Marnau, Theodor Kramer, Franz Baermann Steiner, Stella Rotenberg and HG Adler. Featuring Christoph Szalay, Dominic Jaeckle, Andrea Capovilla, SJ Fowler, Stephen Watts and more to be announced.
