Angewandte Festival

We are part of Angewandte Festival 2020 - Schwimmverein Donaukanal hosted a livestream performance from the Donaukanal. This day the water conditions did not allow us to swim:

– heavy rainfalls the days before

– high water in Donaukanal

– Wienfluss water level was higher than usual

– the watercolor was brownish instead of a more greenish color

– the current was too strong and the river was way too fast to go inside


Still we took a footbath and started the conversation about the Schwimmverein Activities and in general the potential of the Kanal as our shared liquid public space. And we took the chance to launch Schwimmverein Donaukanal merch!
