The New York dancer/choreographer Erick Hawkins was a friend of Friedrich Kiesler. At Kiesler’s funeral, he performed the endless bow in front of his body. Bert Gstettner, a former student of Hawkins, used Hawkins’ act and his words addressed to Kiesler as the occasion for the closing performance of the two exhibitions on Frederick Kiesler at the Kunsthaus Zug. Bert Gstettner is a dancer and choreographer who lives and works in Vienna.

With the generous support of the Austrian Cultural Forum Bern.
