European Modernism reached its purest and most concentrated expression in Vienna at the turn of the century. This was a tumultuous period of transition in which the arts, literature, architecture and philosophy blossomed; a time when Sigmund Freud, among others, pioneered new ideas about the self and psychiatry.

This multidisciplinary exhibition explores the influence of psychiatry on early Modernism and how these formative attitudes still influence the way we think about mental illness 100 years on.
