Simon English at the Essl Museum of Contemporary Art





ASPECTS OF COLLECTING
ARKEN IHC LOUISIANA MART MdM
MOT MS MSU STÄDEL TATE
20/11/09 – 28/02/10
Opening: 19 Nov 2009, 7.30 p.m.


On the occasion of its 10th anniversary in 2009, the Essl Museum has invited ten international museums to take part in the exhibition project >ASPECTS OF COLLECTING<. All participating institutions and museums received a certain budget and were asked to acquire works of art they considered interesting and significant. The selection was made by the respective museum directors or curators. There were no conditions imposed, there was only the recommendation to focus on contemporary art. The Essl Museum will also contribute its own acquisition scheme. The selected sets of works will be presented in an exhibition at the Essl Museum and will then be made available to the individual museums as permanent loans.

The project partners were primarily selected on the basis of personal contacts established by the art collector Karlheinz Essl, who considered it important to invite not only institutions in Western Europe, but wanted to involve renowned museums with very different cultural and socio-political backgrounds. The wish to enhance future networking and co-operation and foster intercultural exchanges is one of the main driving forces of the project.
