The hot water kettle was shown as part of the sensational exhibition Wiener Silber, curated by internationally recognised Viennese art historians such as Christian Witt-Döring, Stephan and Paul Asenbaum, Elisabeth Schmuttermeier, Silvia Mattl, Wilfreid Seipl and their foreign counterparts? The exhibition, curated by such greats as Christopher Wilk, Rene Price and others, was shown in Ronald Lauda's Neue Gallerrei New York. This exhibition subsequently travelled to the KHM in Vienna with great success.
