Featuring works by 21 artists spanning the 19th – 21st centuries, Alpine Desire has been conceived of as a dialogue between artists over the course of decades, rather than as a chronological lineup of works. On view from January 27 – May 8, 2011, the exhibition uses the majesty of the mountains to discuss issues of human dependence on and interference in nature and presents how artists have interpreted the Alps and the "alpine" in the course of the past three centuries.

Curators: Agnes Husslein, Andreas Stadler, and William Stover Exhibition Coordination: Natascha Boojar (NY) and Eva Maria Stadler (Vienna)
