Drawing after antiquity – The Plaster Cast Collection opens for an afternoon of drawing
The afternoon opening of the Plaster Cast Collection is an offer to all those who want to deal intensively with drawing.
The collection of about 450 historical plaster casts can be regarded as unique in Vienna. The purism of the form of plaster casts and the impressive objects offer an inexhaustible pool of motifs – a source of inspiration to revitalise the artistic expression of drawing!
This revives a proven academic tradition. Drawing after antiquity was an integral part of art education at the academy until the beginning of the 20th century.
At the appointment, you can immerse yourself in the collection individually and without guidance.
Please bring your own pens, paper and, if necessary, easel.
Limited number of participants, registration required at +43 1 588 16 2201 or kunstsammlungen@akbild.ac.at
Ticket per person 16 Euro, meeting point at the porter, Gate 1
