In October 2005, the art space was opened as a cooperation between the management of Lakeside Science & Technology Park and curators Christian Kravagna and Hedwig Saxenhuber. The order issued before the technology park was established to develop an art-in-architecture concept for the site made it possible to devise an arts program with contents and using methods appropriate to the specific location and its functions. In addition to the permanent artworks realized in the public areas of the park, along with temporary projects, Kunstraum Lakeside was designed and equipped by Josef Dabernig as the focal point for an ongoing program of art and discourse. The following projects were conceived as permanent installations for the Lakeside Science & Technology Park:

People are still discriminated against and persecuted today: Because they are gay, lesbian or trans, because they desire both men and women, or because they do not fit into a normative world view for other reasons. Julius Pristauz has dedicated a memorial to all these people who do not live and love according to the usual conventions in the Lakeside Science & Technology Park. The monument is inconspicuous during the day. As one of the lights, it can hardly be distinguished from the others. In the dark, however, the monument takes on a dazzling spectrum of colors.
