In the exhibition SIDEKICKS: Rings and Bags from the MAK Collection at the Geymüllerschlössel, valuable accessories and jewelry play a leading role.
 
Embedded in an artistic presentation by guest curator Ulrike Johannsen, the objects are displayed in the splendid Biedermeier ambience of the Schlössel amidst the presentation of the permanent collection. 111 highlights from the museum’s possessions are presented ranging from medieval finger rings to design classics by the Wiener Werkstätte to contemporary luxury handbags.
 
Also in the garden of the Geymüllerschlössel, historical and contemporary objects enter into a dialogue. On show are Hubert Schmalix’ sculpture Der Vater weist dem Kind den Weg [The Father Shows the Way to His Child] (1996) as well as the Skyspace The Other Horizon (1998/2004) by US artist James Turrell.
