The Great Museum (Dir. Johannes Holzhausen, 2014) as part of Film Series: Museums in Motion

Wednesday, October 12, 2016 - 6:00pm
Collins Cinema

Featuring unprecedented access to an influential and multi­faceted institution, The Great Museum reveals the inner­workings of Vienna's Kunsthistorisches Museum. As the camera roams through spacious rooms hosting some of the world's most valuable art, director Johannes Holzhausen brings light to a dynamic, reflective and fast­moving institution that is both adapting to the marketing and funding realities of the 21st­-century while remaining faithful to its core mission.

All films take place in Collins Cinema beginning at 6:00pm. In honor of the Davis’s newly installed permanent collections galleries, uncover the secret life of museums through this selection of recent cinematic masterpieces. These contemporary films pull back the curtain on unique, behind­ the­ scenes views of museum activities and characters, both real and imagined.
