Vienna Art & Design exhibition

The Vienna: Art & Design exhibition at the National Gallery Victoria in Melbourne is now entering its last week, before closing on 9 October.

The exhibition explores the extraordinary period of artistic and intellectual genius during Vienna in 1900, bringing together more than 250 works of art, including painting, drawing, graphic and decorative art, furniture, fashion, jewellery and photography, most never before seen in Australia. Artists include Gustav Klimt, Egon Schiele, Josef Hoffmann and Adolf Loos.

For more information, visit NGV’s website.
