Swarovski Crystal Worlds in Wattens, Austria, is one of the country’s most visited attractions and this crystal-themed indoor park is celebrating its 15th anniversary this year. Since autumn this year, all the attention was with the Russian artistic duo Blue Noses, who have reinterpreted ingeniously the four architectural masterpieces as a series of “Home Videos” - The Taj Mahal in Agra, the Great Pyramid of Giza, the Empire State Building in New York and Lenin’s Mausoleum in Moscow.
All these works of art were recreated in crystal in the Swarovski laboratory in dimensions never seen before. The FAMOS exhibition presents new interpretations of renowned architectural works, a unique collaborative project by the artist duo Blue Noses, Swarovski and the Knoll Gallery.
