Yesterday, Fashion.at visited the Parallel Sculpture Park in Gmunden a few hours before its official opening and walked through the Toscana Park on the peninsula at Lake Traunsee, where sculptures by around 45 artists have been placed in expected and unexpected places, such as trees, until the end of August.
