Housed in its festive palatial building on the Vienna Ring Road, it is crowned with an octagonal dome. The term ''Kunsthistorisches Museum'' applies to both the institution and the main building.

Emperor Franz Joseph I of Austria-Hungary opened the facility around 1891 at the same time as the Natural History Museum, Vienna which has a similar design and is directly across Maria-Theresien-Platz.

The emperor commissioned the two Ringstraße museums to create a suitable home for the Habsburgs' formidable art collection and to make it accessible to the general public. The buildings are rectangular in shape, with symmetric ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Oskar Kokoschka
Oskar Kokoschka (1 March 1886 – 22 February 1980) was an Austrian artist, poet, playwright, and teacher best known for his intense Expressionism, expressionistic portraits and landscapes, as well as his theories on vision that influenced the Viennese Expressionist movement. Early life The second child of Gustav Josef Kokoschka, a Bohemian goldsmith, and Maria Romana Kokoschka (née Loidl), Oskar Kokoschka was born in Pöchlarn. He had a sister, Berta, born in 1889; a brother, Bohuslav, born in 1892; and an elder brother who died in infancy. Oskar had a strong belief in omens, spurred by a story of a fire breaking out in Pöchlarn shortly after his mother gave birth to him. The family's life was not easy, largely due to a lack of financial stability of his father. They constantly moved into smaller flats, farther and farther from the thriving centre of the town. Concluding that his father was inadequate, Kokoschka drew closer to his mother; and seeing himself as the head of th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Ulrike Lienbacher
Ulrike Lienbacher (born 1963 in Oberndorf bei Salzburg) is an Austrian artist. She works in various media and lives in Salzburg and Vienna. Biography Lienbacher studied sculpture at the Mozarteum University in Salzburg from 1981 to 1987 and has been active as an artist since the late 1980s. She was appointed president of the Salzburger Kunstverein for a term of office in 2001. She led the sculpture class at the Mozarteum University from 2017 until 2022. She works in the media of drawing, sculpture and photography and adopts a specific, discrete approach for each: generally speaking, it is the difference between the media that Lienbacher is interested in. In her art she deals with the human body, especially under the aspects of optimization, standardisation, supervision and performance. She explores the dependency system of social norms and regulations as well as notions of discipline and control: it depicts the human body within ''‘a culture of hygiene and health’,'' as a "b ...
