Breaking Down Walls! The collections
First part of the collection exhibition series for the anniversary year 2024.
The year 2024 is marked by two major anniversaries for the Museum der Moderne Salzburg: Twenty years ago, the extraordinary location on Mönchsberg was opened and ten years ago, one of Austria's most important private art collections with an international focus, the Generali Foundation Collection, came to Salzburg on permanent loan. Therefore, the Museum will increase the visibility of the collections and two levels on the Mönchsberg will be used for exhibitions from the collections.
The exhibition “Breaking Down Walls!” reflects the concept of space as a phenomenon shaped, experienced and coded by humans, tracing a long arc from classic modernism to new media art. The exhibition showcases works by Gustav Klimt, Egon Schiele, Martha Jungwirth, Renée Green, and others.
