Vienna 1900–1937 for the first time thematizes the epochal influence that the designs of Viennese Modernism’s young architects exerted on the development of art glass in Vienna in the first three decades of the 20th century. Based on over 300 works from the collection of the MAK as well as from private collections, it presents the nascence of the art of modern glassmaking in Austria from the last decades of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy to the end of the First Republic.
