June to July 5, 2025 . The creative duo Moritz Müller, consisting of Konstanze Müller and Andreas Moritz, has dealt with various facets and atmospheres of the waiting and would like to invite the audience to realize the everyday.

A true highlight is the 24-hour video installation that depicts the waiting in real time. In addition to this installation, the performance "π in the sky" is also presented, which comes up with a varying line -up. The whole thing will take place in Steyr on June 28th and 29th, 2025 in the historic "Fischerg’schirr" (Zwischenbrücken 2). In St. Valentin, at the train station - the starting point for "culture on rail" - you can track down on the waiting

artistic encounters in the city

The event is more than just a number of performances; It is an invitation to reflect on the waiting in all its dimensions. Daniela Zeiner from inner city management emphasizes that vacancies in the city can now be considered waiting and thereby maintain a new meaning. The train stations and city centers act as encounter zones in which socio-cultural interactions take place.

On June 28, 2025, the opening times in Steyr from 10:00 a.m. to midnight are set, with an intervention at 10:00 a.m. and performance at 8:00 p.m. On June 29, the event of 00:00 to 5:00 p.m. is open, there is an intervention at 10:00 a.m. and a performance at 3:00 p.m.

designing the waiting artistically

"Essentially: wait." is part of a greater movement of participatory art projects that aim to use the public space as an artificial area. Just like past initiatives that offer citizens a platform for their ideas, this project would like to actively involve the people of Steyr and St. Valentin and stimulate a dialogue. Events in theaters, museums and galleries can create access to art, but the most exciting encounters often take place where it is least expected-in everyday life.
