Winter in Vienna

The Vanishing of a Season

14 November 2024 - 16 March 2025

Winter in Vienna is not what it used to be. Childhood memories of daily snowball fights or tobogganing in the Prater are a far cry from today's reality. A once cold, icy, white, and dark season has given way to snowless months with consistently moderate temperatures. "Winter in Vienna" tells the story of urban life in the age of climate change.

Cold City - Dark Season - Icy Pleasure - White Splendor: In four chapters, the show examines life in wintery Vienna over the centuries. It tells of the joys and sorrows of the winter months, from seasonal attractions to the serious differences between rich and poor in experiencing and surviving the cold. At the same time, it never loses sight of the present and its prospects for ever milder winters in Vienna.
The exhibition never loses sight of a present characterized by continuous warming. Against the backdrop of sentimental representations of winters past, it ultimately asks: What does climate change mean for Vienna, Europe, and the world?
