Exhibitions

Main exhibition
"Follow the Rabbit"

In the main exhibition 2023 "Follow the Rabbit" curated by Alexandra Grimmer, the Liaunig Collection shows a new side by opening the door to the Far East and presenting itself in juxtaposition with contemporary Chinese art.

Special exhibition
"Zbyněk Sekal 100"

The first special exhibition of the 2023 season is dedicated - on the occasion of his 100th birthday - to the Czech painter and sculptor Zbyněk Sekal (1923 Prague-1998 Vienna), who lived and worked in Vienna since 1970.



Sculpture depot
"Eyewall – Hannes Priesch"

"Eyewall" is the title of a series of 49 paintings and a performance by the artist Hannes Priesch (*1954), which deals with the e-mail correspondence of the US authority FEMA before, during and after Hurricane Katrina in autumn 2005.


Permanent collections

African Beaded Art

The approximately 300 objects – richly beaded, ceremonially used objects, but also everyday things – provide an insight into the lifeworlds and traditions of West and Central African ethnic groups and show a facet of African art that is still little explored.

Portrait miniatures

Of the now well over 300 miniatures in the Liaunig Collection, this second exhibition presents a representative selection of over 120 pieces of these hand-painted portraits of the smallest scale, created between the beginning of the 17th and the end of the 19th century.



Glass

The second part of the Liaunig Glass Collection – a selection of more than 100 glasses from the various eras - has been on display since 2021. The compilation provides an overview of European glass history and shows how diverse and innovative the material glass has been designed.
