Restaurant Transformable, a temporary communal kitchen designed by Rainer Prohaska at Vienna’s Kunstraum Niederösterreich, formed the starting point for his early cooking performances. Two central aspects of Rainer Prohaska’s work find expression in Restaurant Transformable as walkable installation and space for social interaction. This hybrid of exhibition and performance invited visitors to observ the ongoing transformation of the space while the installation was being installed as well as its subsequent use, and to participate in preparing meals together.
