Ways to use the education resources
Images and discussion points may be used for preparation before visiting Vienna: Art & Design – Klimt, Schiele, Hoffmann, Loos and material may be explored in greater depth in post- visit activities. Some of the highlighted works are part of the NGV permanent collection and could form the focus for further visits or classroom projects.
Discuss, Analyse, Compare and Design headings are followed by focus questions or tasks that aim to promote a deeper understanding of artworks and ideas presented in the exhibition.
