Show all
Comprising around 70,000 works, the Neue Galerie Graz collection has been shown in different ways in recent years, most recently on a large scale up to summer 2024 under the title Show! Highlights from the Collection. Some 9,000 interested viewers visited the exhibition over the four months it ran. Due to strong demand, a permanent presentation of the collection is now on show, which can be seen in concentrated form under the title Selection. For the first time, the public was actively involved in the new selection; a survey led to an astonishing result, which was adopted into the current presentation.
