Description
The Vienna Prater: A Place for Everyone A new museum dedicated to the heart of Vienna's leisure time is set to open in 2024. The Vienna Prater, a traditional hub for entertainment, is a key collection point for the Wien Museum. This publication brings together original objects from the new Pratermuseum, including ring toss figures, parts of a funhouse, early slot machines and Kasperl puppets, alongside plans, models, photographs, entrance tickets, programmes, posters and artworks. The book showcases the highlights of over 300 objects on display at the new museum. It explores major themes of modern life, such as the relationship between nature and city, humans and animals, modern technology and human bodies. Large-format images accompany the text, providing a glimpse into the exhibition's content. The catalogue is published in conjunction with the essay collection Der Wiener Prater: Labor der Moderne, which will be launched at the opening of the new museum in March 2024.
