FRANCIS BACON AND THE TRADITION OF ART
October 15, 2003 until January 18, 2004
Kunsthistorisches Museum
1010 Vienna, Maria Theresien-Platz
The Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna will host the first solo exhibition in Austria, dedicated to the artist Francis Bacon, who was born in Dublin in 1909 and lived in London until his death in 1992. This exhibition is not a retrospective, but rather locates for the first time the network of relationships and influences spanning from the Old Masters to artists of the 20th century, which were crucial to Bacon’s artistic development.
