WMW Contemporary New perspectives at the Weltmuseum Wien

WMW Contemporary represents contemporary art at the Weltmuseum Wien – art of today that explores themes such as coexistence, memory, and renewal.

Two exhibitions featuring artists from London and Kampala, as well as an exhibition drawn from the museum’s own collections, explore themes such as coexistence, social responsibility, and the social reality of violence.
