Projected on all the surface of the Atelier des Lumières, the new digital exhibition immerses visitors in the paintings of Vincent van Gogh. This new visual and musical production retraces the intense life of the artist, who, during the last ten years of his life, painted more than 2,000 pictures, which are now in collections around the world.

With 98 works on display by 68 artists, the exhibition seeks to analyse not only the place that pastel holds compared to traditionally venerated oil painting, but also the reasons that led different artists in the 19th and 20th centuries to turn to and reclaim this medium. Divided into 10 chronological sections, the show highlights the key moments and crucial figures in the rebirth of pastel during the first iteration of modernity, a time when this technique came to be considered an art in its own right.

The touring exhibition "Blue. The Colour of Art Nouveau" aims to explore the spirit of a period in which blue was a predominant thread. In the late nineteenth century, relating landscapes and the phenomena of nature to moods, so as to transmit the soul's hues and tonalities, ended up constituting a poetological aesthetic that became inscribed within the great movement of modernity, moving through Symbolism and witnessing the birth of the cinematograph.

Travelling exhibition "Charles Rennie Mackintosh: Making the Glasgow Style" will be the first exhibition in the United States not only to showcase the seminal work of Charles Rennie Mackintosh (1868-1928) but to locate his production in relation to the larger circle of designers and craftspeople with which he shared sources, stylistic features, and patrons.

By showcasing posters and paintings, sculptures, furniture and ceramics, the exhibition underscores the extraordinary artistic and artisanal blossoming that swept over and ultimately overhauled decorative taste at the beginning of the twentieth century.

To commemorate  the 150th anniversary of Austrian-Japanese friendship, the MAK presents two exhibitions:  "KUNIYOSHI +: Design and Entertainment in Japanese Woodblock Prints" and "UKIYOENOW: Tradition and Experiment".

The first presentation is devoted to the late period of the ukiyo-e. The show's main spotlight is on one of the most important and innovative artists of the nineteenth century, Utagawa Kuniyoshi (1797-1861).  In contrast, "UKIYOENOW: Tradition and Experiment" opens up new dimensions in the contemporary treatment of the Japanese art form and poses the question of how far the different forms of production-traditional handicraft and digital print-and also the new context of global/transnational pop cultures are impacting the further development of the ukiyo-e.

Curated by the Museu d'Art de Cerdanyola in collaboration with the Fundació Joan Abelló, this exhibition provides an analysis of male nudes from a feminist perspective that vindicates gender equality and the sexual and emotional diversity of gender identity.

Discover the architect Otto Wagner, a key figure in the field of European architecture at the turn of the 20th century. His works contributed greatly to the emergence of a "modern architecture".

This exhibition is part of the Viennese season organised by the Cité.

This exhibition focuses on the connection between two artists who questioned the principles of sculpture throughout their careers and subverted the traditional gaze toward the human body from a renewed aesthetic.

Aubrey Beardsley (1872 - 1898)  shocked and delighted late-Victorian London with his sinuous black and white drawings. He explored the erotic and the elegant, the humorous and grotesque, winning admirers around the world with his distinctive style.
This exhibition will cover Beardsley's intense and prolific career as a draughtsman and illustrator, cut short by his untimely death from tuberculosis, aged 25. Beardsley's charismatic, enigmatic persona played a part in the phenomenon that he and his art generated.
