The Palais Rössl is a cross-generational, multidisciplinary, growing symbiotic network of artists, musicians, designers and cultural practitioners in the heart of Vienna, as well as a hybrid entity transcending time and space, open to interconnections of all kinds. We share a love of communal spaces and poetic-political co-creation, with sound and soundproduction serving as a strong binding force.
Spanning 700 m², the space is home to art studios, music studios, rehearsal rooms, workshops, exhibition spaces, communal areas and a garden for fish.
Two members of the Viennese Radia collective – Karl H. Schönswetter and Lale Rodgarkia-Dara – as well as a former member, Maria Herold, are key contributors to the Palais Rössl. Maria Herold collected sound clips from artists at the Palais Rössl which provide an acoustic insight into the ‘Soundpalais Rössl’.
At the Radia Show No. 1121 “The Rössl Radia Show” you will listen to the work of Auto Sophia, Bassano, TJ Tall, Lale Rodgarkia-Dara, Herrror and The Sir Teens. The Show is embedded by the live-performance of “under the given circumstances” by JUUN and Lale Rodgarkia-Dara at the Re-Compose-Festival 2021.
