Open Spaces & Galleries

Fri, 19.01.2024 – Sun, 29.09.2024
In the spaces of the former permanent exhibition on the ground floor, the Volkskundemuseum Wien 2024 is setting up Open Spaces & Galleries for initiatives working on the utopia of a post-migrant and diverse society.
Activist groups, artists, collectives and urban initiatives are invited to appropriate the spaces for themselves and their topics. Working together in the open spaces enables both informal dialogue and networking between the participants. This is where ideas for living together in a post-migrant city emerge and visions and versions of the next society are produced and propagated. In the Open Galleries, in turn, this thinking and work can find an external form.
The Open Spaces & Galleries are a first step towards a post-migrant focus for the Volkskundemuseum Wien.
 
Groups / Initiatives:
Crip Magazine, Decolonizing in Vienna!, Fremde werden Freunde, Gewächshaus, Hint Wien, Hof der Kulturen, Kids of the Diaspora, kültüř gemma!, Mai Ling, Museum der Migration, Neuer Wiener Diwan, oca:, Viena Chilena.
 
In May and June, the Open Spaces will also host climate activists invited by the Vienna Climate Biennale. The Open Galleries will become offices for the Wiener Festwochen, which will move into the Volkskundemuseum with a special programme.
