The Prinzhorn Collection – From “Art of the Insane” to Outsider Art

For the first time, the Prinzhorn Collection has created a permanent exhibition to accompany the museum’s special exhibits. Entitled “The Prinzhorn Collection – From ‘Art of the Insane’ to Outsider Art”, the exhibit features around 120 works created in a psychiatric context from the mid-19th century until today, offering a glimpse of the 27,000 works in the collection.

Anima-L

The exhibition Anima-L presents for the first time a large number of historical and contemporary works of art from the Prinzhorn Collection in which animals appear as proxies for extraordinary psychological experiences. Animals illustrate emotions, serve as a projection screen for identity, are a means of communication, or mirror human behavior.
