Kunstschatzi goes Eurovision Song Contest

KUNSTSCHATZI goes Eurovision Song Contest

Offizielles Side Event des Eurovision Song Contest 2026

KUNSTSCHATZI im Song Contest-Fieber! Lasst euch in dieser KUNSTSCHATZI Special Edition von unseren Kunstvermittler*innen zu jenen Orten im Museum führen, wo der Rhythmus des ESC besonders stark pulsiert. Denn schon long before Spotify & Co. gelang es Künstler*innen Musik in Kunstwerken festzuhalten und so unsterblich zu machen: Sie taucht in gemalter Form ebenso auf, wie versteckt in kuriosen Automaten. (Und JA, auf so mancher historischer Party ging es definitiv lauter zu als gedacht.)

Wenn ihr genau hinschaut (und ein bisschen reinhört), entdeckt ihr sogar Throwbacks zu echten Song-Contest-Momenten in den Werken. Liebe, Drama, große Gefühle – alles da. Und natürlich auch die Vision von einem Europa ohne Grenzen. In diesem Sinne: Trefft auf bekannte (und neue) Gesichter im KHM – „In the Heart of Europe – United by Art“! 
 

KUNSTSCHATZI is in Eurovision fever! Join this KUNSTSCHATZI special edition and let our art educators take you to the spots in the museum where the ESC vibe hits the hardest. Because long before Spotify & Co., artists were already capturing music in artworks and making it last forever – painted, hidden, even built into curious mechanical devices. (And YES, some historical parties were definitely louder than you’d expect.)

If you look closely (and listen a little), you might even spot throwbacks to iconic Song Contest moments in the works. Love, drama, big emotions – it’s all there. And of course, the vision of a united Europe. So come through, see a few familiar (and new) faces at the KHM – “In the Heart of Europe – United by Art!”
