On 10 April 2015, Anita Witek won BIG’s Kunst & Bau competition for the secondary school BG/BRG/BORG and hall of residence in Eisenstadt with her project entitled Circling the Square.
The judges explained their unanimous decision as follows:
“Anita Witek’s Circling the Square is based primarily on the idea of creating an atmosphere that will appeal to both young people and to adults. The use of diverse materials creates options for physical activity and seating for outdoor lessons. Looking down from the first floor of the school building, viewers see a collage made up of colours and layers that combine to form an artistic synthesis on one side of the square. The judges were impressed by the artist’s extremely thoughtful colour and material concept for the yard in front of the school, as it allows the students to experience a high-quality contemporary work of art, while also being able to use it as a recreational area.”
