This curated section »Utopia: Post-War« is dedicated to the open and multiple narratives of post-war art. Much as we are still experiencing the aftermath of the Second World War and gaining new insights into it, the way we view the art of this period is in flux. While the attempt to capture and reflect on the events, destruction and trauma was initially concentrated on a few countries, this has long since become a global project. The same applies to the art of this period, which first reflected the deep shock felt in society and then evolved to create new forms of art, networks and utopias.

The section includes 14 solo presentations by local and international galleries who have close ties with the selected artists. Special features, including experimental film and dance from the post-war period, will round off the exhibition and address other distribution channels. This section does not claim to offer a complete overview of the art from this period – something that would not be possible even if the focus were just limited to Austria. In a time dominated by a global pandemic, the exhibition aims to throw a spotlight on the work of individual artists, rather than relying on canons of work or systematic approaches.

Sabine Breitwieser is currently a 2020/2021 Getty Scholar at the Getty Research Institute in Los Angeles and a curator and author based in Vienna. 2013 until 2018 she held the position of Director at the Museum der Moderne Salzburg. Previously, from 2010 until 2013 she served as chief curator of the Media and Performance Art department at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. From 1988 until 2007, she was the founding director and chief curator of the Generali Foundation in Vienna. She has lead and curated more than 150 monographic and thematic exhibitions throughout Europe and the United States and has also had around 100 works and numerous essays published. In 2012, Sabine Breitwieser received the Yoko Ono Lennon Courage Award for the Arts in New York.
