Das mumok bereitet für Frühjahr 2019 eine umfassende Einzelausstellung der in Wien lebenden Künstlerin Dorit Margreiter vor. Margreiters Interesse gilt den Verbindungen von visuellen Systemen und räumlichen Strukturen, dem Verhältnis von Gegenwart und Geschichte, sowie jenem von Realität, Repräsentation und Fiktion.

Of all the pioneering art movements of the 1960s, Op art and kinetic art seem to have been accorded the least recognition. Often they were depreciatingly seen as too spectacular and thus superficial. Wrongly so, since Op art and kinetic art sharpen our awareness of the ambiguous nature of reality.

Ornament as Promise was the premise of the Pattern and Decoration movement in the United States (1975–1985). In this exhibition, mumok presents the rich collection of works from this movement of Peter and Irene Ludwig, in the largest presentation of Pattern and Decoration in German-speaking Europe since the 1980s.

The work of Nikita Kadan (born 1982 in Kiev) centers on his artistic exploration of post-communist social and political developments, and their origins and causes in the Soviet system.

In January 2017 the collectors Gertraud and Dieter Bogner gave a very special gift to mumok—approximately thirty works by the Austrian-American architect, artist, stage designer, designer, and theorist Friedrich Kiesler.

The latest work from the series Endangered Human Movements is based on a pre-Hispanic dance form used by the Spanish crown (Casa de Austria / Habsburg) in the conquest of Mexico as “Danza de conquista”.

Every Saturday mumok offers tours while seating. You can watch and listen relaxed, ask questions and add some aspects.

Words are dancing through space but they do not form a drama. Instead, they take the audience on a journey through three lives. This, in turn, results in something quite unlike a psychologising drama. And this something is a balancing act of language, of space and of objects.

Their luck changed thanks to Instagram, which was especially lucky for the audience. In 2016, the two Egyptian dancers Noura Seif Hassanein and Salma Abdel Salam began to upload photos and videos of their projects on social media.

Elsa and Gabriel. Their love, their life together and their studies of art in Paris. The rhythm of days and nights, the images on Youtube or Facebook, the signs of the streets, the movements of a society in the storm of change.
