No pressure, no performing

What action painting means with us

An empty canvas, spray cans and wax crayons are waiting for you, our guide sets the frame, and from there your team decides what happens on the canvas.

That is exactly where action painting starts with us: guided enough that a picture comes out at the end instead of tipping into brown, and free enough that everyone does what they want. As a company event that means no run sheet to sign off before you book.

Anyone who has done a team event where everyone stands in a circle and plays guided games knows the feeling: grown adults treated like they are back in school. With us, that pressure falls away and the painting stays.

There is no paint-by-numbers here, no template, no fixed order, no „red first, blue after“. A guide keeps paint, surface and tool working together, the canvas itself stays entirely your call. From €79 per person, net, and cost per head drops as the group grows.

Three craft rules

The craft

Freedom on the canvas still obeys how paint actually behaves. Three simple rules keep the result a picture, not a muddy brown patch:

Wax does not take paint. Anyone who works with a wax crayon before the paint goes on keeps that area free. No matter how many layers come on top later, the spot stays clear. Patterns appear this way without anyone needing to be able to paint.

Spray paint cracks on fresh acrylic. If the acrylic layer underneath has not fully cured, spraying over it creates a craquelé effect: fine cracks that make the picture look years old. Anyone who has seen it once never paints without this trick again.

Paint dosing is the real craft. Too much paint at once runs together and turns dark green to brown: the moment a picture becomes a mess of colour. The guide steps in right before that happens, not after.

These three rules are why guided does not mean restricted with us. The guide takes care of the material, you take care of the decisions.

Real action painting dates, Hamburg first, plus two dates from Munich that show the same format at a different scale. Each group works at its own canvas, paint in motion, nobody just watching.

For HANSAINVEST we set up a graffiti wall and an action painting setup side by side on the pier at Hamburg's Museumshafen, right under the old loading doors of the MS Bleichen. Small groups worked on their own canvases, and all the pieces were presented at the end.

The steps behind an action painting team event in Wien

We don't talk much, we get to work early. We barely interfere with your pictures — the result should come from your hand, not ours.

A session runs two to three hours, and the order makes the difference: if everyone paints at once, the colours run into each other and turn brown. That is why your piece grows in layers, with short breaks in between. What that means for your group is laid out step by step below.

Zwei bis drei Stunden · Indoor und Outdoor
01The wall is settled first

No venue yet? We point you to a spot we have used before, though the booking itself stays with you, side programme and drinks included. Got your own room? We simply show up once the surface is ready.

02Protection and liability sit with us

Our crew covers every surface on site with protective sheeting before a drop of paint falls, and takes liability for it. Anything that risks staining stays covered. Clothes stay on, a poncho and gloves do the job.

03Wachs nimmt keine Farbe an

Der Guide erklärt zuerst das Material: Sprühfarbe, Wachsmaler, Acryl, Lack. Sprühfarbe reißt auf noch feuchtem Acryl auf, es entsteht Craquelé. Deshalb liegt am Ende Schicht auf Schicht.

04One guide per fifty heads

We break large groups into units of about fifty, each with its own guide. While one pair paints, the rest take on a short side task, and the guide calls the rotation.

05Layer by layer, with real drying time

Each layer has to set before the next colour lands, so groups take turns: paint, step back, wait, hand over. That pause is craft, not downtime.

06Ihr entscheidet vorab, wie gemalt wird

One canvas each, or one shared piece the whole team builds together, layer on layer: that choice gets made at booking, not on the day.

07Am Ende räumen wir auf, ihr nehmt mit

We leave the surface exactly as we found it. Everything painted is yours from that second on, no shipping, no follow-up delivery, you carry it out the door that same day.

“Despite complete lack of talent in the team, we created a result in the end that really everyone is proud of.”
Gandalf der Weisse · Google review, Wien

Original (German): „Trotz völliger Talentfreiheit im Team haben wir am Ende ein Ergebnis geschaffen, auf das wirklich alle stolz sind.“

“[…] 28 colleagues aged between 20 and 60, and all of us completely clueless. […] In the end we were really proud of ourselves. […] As a keepsake, Luca gave us photos taken with the drone.”
Tordis Lehmann · Google review, Wien

Original (German):“[…] 28 colleagues aged 20 to 60, all complete beginners. […] In the end we were really proud of ourselves. […] As a keepsake, Luca sent us photos taken with the drone.”

“[…] What surprised me was that you don't have to be an artist, because everyone gets individual attention and is encouraged to try things out. […] By the end we had created a great artwork and had a big grin on our faces.”
RiKe · Google review, Wien

Original (German):“[…] What surprised me is that you do not have to be an artist: everyone is met where they are and encouraged to experiment. […] In the end we had created a great piece of art and had a big grin on our faces.”

What group size changes

For groups smaller than nine or ten people we do not accept an enquiry, because the setup does not carry itself. Travel to Wien, materials and guidance are included, all prices are plus 19% VAT.

How you pay

There are two routes: book directly in the shop, or an invoice to your accounts department. In both cases payment falls due before the date, and that is the rule with us.

If something gets in the way

Up to 30 days before you cancel free of charge, after that the full sum falls due. If the weather turns in Wien, that only decides the format, graffiti on canvas or action painting in the greenhouse keeps running.

What is already included

Materials, guidance, set-up and take-down sit inside the price, along with travel to Wien. For a legal wall we might use we obtain the permit, at no extra charge.

What does a team event in Wien cost?

A team event in Wien starts at €79 per person net, and small groups sit at €129.

The price per head falls as the group grows, and that is plain arithmetic. Travel to Wien, setup and crew happen once, whether twelve are spraying or two hundred. Two hundred spread the same fixed costs across more shoulders. The price includes travel, transport of all materials, all the paint, protective covers and guidance from our people on site. For a legal wall we might use we obtain the permit, at no extra charge. The only thing you pay for is the location, if you do not have one. For groups smaller than nine or ten we do not accept an enquiry, because the setup does not carry itself. All figures are net, plus 19% VAT. Up to 30 days before the date you cancel free of charge, after that the full sum falls due. We answer your enquiry within 24 hours with a concrete quote.

Where can you hold a team event in Wien?

In Wien we work at three documented locations, plus anywhere your team has rooms of its own.

Vienna's office clusters sit spread across the city: Donau City with its high-rises for international corporations, the Landstraße/Erdberg area with large company headquarters around the Wienerberg, plus the creative and agency scene in Neubau and the growing office locations in Leopoldstadt near Praterstraße. We bring material, guides and setup to any of these locations. If you already have a space in mind – a loft, courtyard, rooftop or an empty office floor – tell us at the enquiry and we check whether it works. If not, a rented event space will do too, as long as there is room, a surface that holds and power – we handle the permit for the space ourselves, you only book and pay for the venue itself. Whether your date is called a company outing or a corporate event changes nothing here. If you are unsure whether your space works, attach a photo to the enquiry. Then we settle it beforehand rather than on the day.

What do you do in Wien in bad weather?

Bad weather does not cancel a date in Wien, it only decides whether you work at a wall or under glass.

The covered route runs through a rented indoor space with room, a surface that holds and power – your own office floor, a hall or, as for the HANSAINVEST date, a photo studio such as the one in Ottensen. Indoors the forecast does not decide the date, because there is no forecast to check. The second route runs through the material: graffiti on a wall is always an outdoor format, while the same technique on canvas runs indoors as well as outdoors. Action painting works both ways in any case. In practice that means: tell us at the enquiry whether your date can move. If it cannot, we pick a format from the start that needs no forecast. If it can, we hold the outdoor option open and come back to you as soon as the forecast is reliable.

We also come to these cities

Wien is one of our locations — we work across Europe. If your date is not in Wien, this list takes you straight to the city closer to your team.

Frequently asked questions

Do you need any experience?
None needed. At the start, the guide walks through the three craft rules, then the group takes over. Most people who join us have never touched a brush before, and that is completely normal.
Do you need to change clothes?
No, gloves and a poncho are enough protection.
Does it work in bad weather?
Yes, indoors acrylic usually works. For spray paint and bigger action elements, outdoors suits better.
How long does a session take?
Two to three hours, fits easily into a seminar day without eating up the rest of the agenda.
Where does it take place?
On a surface that fits the date, at your site – whether a high-rise office in Donau City or a converted courtyard building in Neubau – or a suitable rented event space in and around Vienna. We bring material, guides and setup. For legal walls we obtain the permit ourselves; a rented event space is booked by you.
Do you book the location for us?
No. We work in public places or on surfaces you provide yourselves; everything else around the location is booked by you. We help with the search and suggest places we have already worked at.
Are drinks included in the price?
No, drinks fall outside our scope, since we do not book the frame around the workshop. You organise catering yourselves.
Can you paint at our office?
Yes, as long as you provide the surface. We show up with protection and material, the room and its booking stay yours.
Who owns the pieces afterwards?
Yours, full stop. The pieces go home with you, we neither ship nor store them afterwards.
What if you need to cancel on short notice?
Cancellation is free up to 30 days before the date; after that we charge 100 %.
Does it work for Christmas parties or summer festivals?
Yes, these come up regularly for us (see references). Tell us the occasion and we will say honestly whether and how it fits.
