Tracey Emin | Egon Schiele: Where I Want to Go

From 23 Apr 2015 to 13 Sep 2015

The Leopold Museum presents Vienna's most significant exhibition dedicated to Britain artist Tracey Emin, whose work is displayed alongside that of the Austrian Expressionist Egon Schiele (1890-1918).

Born in 1963, Emin is a leading figure of the Young British Artists movement - a loose group of visual artists who began exhibiting together in London in 1988.

This exhibition traces the influence of Schiele on Emin's paintings, monotype prints and drawings, and offers insights into her working practices and materials.

On display are more than 80 of her works including paintings, videos, installations made from neon lamps, wood, metal and textiles, as well as photographs and bronze sculptures.

A selection of drawings and written documents by Schiele are incorporated into the exhibition, allowing visitors to draw interesting parallels between the two artists who worked a century apart.

Wed-Mon 10.00-18.00. Thurs 10.00-21.00
