In cooperation with the Tate, the Bank Austria Kunstforum Wien has created the first comprehensive exhibition in Austria of the work of one of the most important contemporary artists: David Hockney: INSIGHTS presents the multifaceted oeuvre of David Hockney (*1937).

The former date back to the 1960s, when Hockney was already addressing the issue of homosexuality at a time when it was still considered a criminal offense in his native Great Britain. The exhibition opens on February 10 and can be visited until June 19, 2022.
Who would like to experience the already fully booked Vernissage on today 09 February nevertheless, can do this digitally: The Bank Austria Kunstforum Wien is offering interested parties the opportunity to experience the opening from 6:30 p.m. onwards via live stream.

»The 80s: Photographing Britain«
It was one of the most moving decades in the history of the United Kingdom: the 1980s, characterized by strikes, protests and AIDS. Photographers documented this period and in some cases became political activists themselves through their images. The exhibition The 80s: Photographing Britain opens on November 21 at the Tate Britain in London.

Guido Klumpe
In search of poetry in urban spaces
It is in the context of functional architecture in urban spaces that Guido Klumpe finds the motifs that he stages with his camera as the poetry of the profane. His picturesque images unfold an opulent effect with a reduced formal language, showing us the beauty of the moment in the flow of everyday life.
