Hundertwasser revised the layout for this catalogue edition based on the design for the catalogue published on the occasion of the exhibition at Haus der Kunst, Munich, 1975 (see APA 190). For this catalogue Hundertwasser used for the first time the so-called gradation frames of the pages and the painting reproductions.This catalogue appeared on the occasion of the world travelling museum exhibition for each country with a different reproduction on the cover, individualised by Hundertwasser with calligraphy of the name of the museum and the year. The first 16 pages contained texts written by the respective museum directors, heads of state and art historians from the various host countries. Its total edition in all three languages since 1976 up to the end of the world travelling museum exhibition tour in 1987 was 450,000 copies.
