Efforts to expand and diversify museum collections are a logical consequence of today’s unconditional calls for equal rights and freedom of expression. The exhibition The Beauty of Diversity presents the rich depth and breadth of the ALBERTINA Museum’s contemporary collections while demonstrating the essential turn toward women and LGBTQIA+ artists, people of color, aboriginal artistic stances, and autodidacts, all of whose works stand out before the contrasting foil of the Old Masters.

Artistic depictions and the arts’ development in wartime lie at the heart of this international cooperative and exhibition project (2020–2024), treating the migration of artists and artworks, systematic looting, art as spoils and the legal foundations.
