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.
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.
"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.
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.
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.
