Heidi Horten Collection VIENNA, AUSTRIA
Tucked away in Vienna’s historic centre, the Heidi Horten Collection is quickly becoming one of the city’s most compelling cultural destinations. Behind the elegant facade of a stately building, visitors are met with a strikingly modern interior — a bold contrast that sets the stage for one of Europe’s finest private collections of modern and contemporary art. From Klimt to Warhol, the museum offers a journey through some of the most influential artistic movements of the 20th and 21st centuries. The permanent collection is a celebration of iconic
works that stir both heart and mind. Masterpieces by the likes of Picasso, Magritte, Rothko, Basquiat, Klee and Chagall sit alongside powerful works by Warhol, Lichtenstein, Haring and Klein. These are artists who shaped the way we see the world. The museum’s thoughtful curation and dynamic architecture make every visit a journey through visual expression at its most transformative. Running alongside the permanent display,
the museum’s temporary exhibitions expand the conversation. Currently on show until March 2026,
The Line explores one of art’s most fundamental elements across cultures, time periods and disciplines. From early modernist drawings to contemporary spatial installations, visitors trace the evolution of the line in all its expressive forms. Works by Klimt, Schiele, Twombly, Fontana, Haring and many more chart a path through artistic innovation, while loans from international collections lend global depth. In 2026, the museum will open “Animals and
Us”, an exhibition that promises to be both visually captivating and thought-provoking. Running from March to August, it explores how animals have been depicted by artists across three centuries, offering a mirror to human emotion, power and vulnerability. From the dreamlike creatures of Chagall to Warhol’s bold pop portraits, the works invite visitors to reflect on the complex relationship between humans and animals, a theme as ancient as it is urgently relevant in today’s ecological context. The Heidi Horten Collection is more than a
museum, it’s a vibrant, evolving space where artistic excellence meets cultural curiosity.
