Bank Austria Kunstforum Vienna
The Bank Austria Kunstforum Wien, located in the heart of the Freyung art district, is the first port of call for art lovers when it comes to classical modernism and the post-war avant-garde in painting. Major museums present their works here, as do private collectors. Whether van Gogh or Miró, Cézanne or Picasso, Kandinsky or Kahlo, Warhol or Toulouse-Lautrec - the great names in art are brought together here in special exhibitions.
