About the Event

Lives and Works in Vienna

Kunsthalle Wien presents the most extensive survey of the Viennese contemporary art scene organised by the institution in over a decade. For six months, across all of its spaces in the Museumsquartier and Karlsplatz, 'Lebt und arbeitet in Wien: Contemporary Art from Vienna' will bring together over 130 artworks by 56 artists who live and work in Vienna, including painting, sculpture, installation, drawing, photography, performance, sound, film and video.

Initially organised by Kunsthalle Wien in 2000, the fifth edition of 'Lebt und arbeitet in Wien' builds upon a longstanding tradition of celebrating Vienna’s lively artistic discourse and diverse community of artists. The exhibition places an emphasis on the city as a dynamic space of production, presenting new and recent works.

Part of the exhibition is on view at the Kunsthalle Wien’s second location on Karlsplatz.
Location: Kunsthalle Wien Karlsplatz - Treitlstraße 2, 1040 Vienna
