Pictures for Everyone

FOTO ARSENAL WIEN is the new center for photography and lens-based media in Austria. Open and inclusive rooms are being created for everyone who is interested in experiencing and understanding all forms of the medium of photography.

FOTO ARSENAL WIEN is an exhibition space for photography and new visual worlds

The international exhibition program will examine photography at the interface between analog, digital, and moving images. Historical and contemporary perspectives will broaden the view of current topics in the realm of photography.

Reaching the Future with Photography

Based on the content of our exhibitions, interactive educational strategies will be developed, particularly for young people. Dialogues, performances, conversations, and workshops for children and adolescents will create bridges to institutions and schools. Our aim is to enable visitors of all ages to have lively interaction with collective image culture.

Felix Hoffmann is the artistic director of FOTO ARSENAL WIEN.

The current temporary venue at MuseumsQuartier will be replaced by our own exhibition space at the Arsenal in the third district of Vienna at the beginning of 2025.
