Ab.Art & Eat.Art

Daniel Spoerri, the founder of “Eat Art” became famous for his “Tableaux Pièges” – securing meal leftovers on table tops. In 2008 the artist purchased some houses in the small wine village of Hadersdorf. The center of the village consists of magnificent renovated houses of the Renaissance, Baroque and Gothic era – an ensemble worth to be seen.

One of the houses, a former monastery, was converted to an impressive museum by Spoerri in which he hosts varying exhibitions of his own art work as well as art works from artists who are close friends. The former movie theater of the village was transformed by Spoerri into a restaurant, where Slow-Food-Cook Ibo Altun provides a small menu that changes weekly. In this location culinary specialties from artists are for sale: olive oil from the Tuscany area “Giardino” of Spoerri or orange jelly from the Spanish artist Marina Blanca.
