An overview of two centuries of fine art: the permanent exhibition of the Neue Galerie Graz shows selected works from the collection begins in 1800.
Art from the Romantic Period and Early Modernism is on show on the ground floor, continuing on the upper floor with Austrian and international works from 1945 to the present day.
A rich range of works are on display, which recall the developments and trends in fine art from Biedermeier to the present. The arc stretches from the systematic capturing of reality in the 19th century, through engagement with artistic ways of approaching problems around the fin-de-siècle and in the early 20th century, through to phenomena such as Op Art and Conceptual Art. Thus we clearly see how man’s involvement with his fellow beings and the world around him represents a continuous source of art.
