CONNECTING MUSEUMS
Three Masterpieces from the Hermitage, the Guggenheim Museum,
and the Kunsthistorisches Museum
June 19 till October 20, 2002
Kunsthistorisches Museum, Picture Gallery
Wien I, Maria Theresien-Platz
This summer, the co-operation agreed in 2001 between the Kunshistorisches Museum, the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation in New York, and the Hermitage in St. Petersburg will be presented to the public in a synchronised event. Each of the three museums will present a simultaneous exhibition of a loaned painting from the other two participating museums together with a work from its own permanent collection. Among the numerous possibilities which the co-operation of three such outstanding and at the same time very different museums offers, the exchange of exhibits is particulary important. Thus these loans will become accessible to numerous visitors in St. Petersburg, New York, and Vienna.
