The Mahler Room at the Haus der Musik (House of Music), Vienna, Austria

---

The exhibition at Haus der Musik. The forest - nature as a place of retreat and inspiration - characterizes the exhibition space created by Peter Mahler, the artist's grandnephew. The exhibition contrasts Mahler's work as a conductor with his composing: focusing on his bearing as director of the Vienna Court Opera, on the one hand, and his role as composer and family man on the other. The tension between the artist's public and private creations lies at the centre of the exposition. The exposition showcases traditional artefacts in combination with high-tech info broking. A multi-vision system created specifically for this exhibition, offers a wealth of impressions. Via touch screens visitors can access in-depth information on Mahler's life and work. Audio-guides and Gustav Mahler's music in the background complete the experience. Arnulf Rainer contributes his piece „Totenmaskenübermalung Gustav Mahler. "
