Annual Report 2024
In early 1964, Peter Konlechner and Peter Kubelka started screening films at various locations in Vienna under the name of the Austrian Film Museum. Since its foundation 60 years ago, the Film Museum has striven to be both an internationally oriented, open-minded museum celebrating film as a global art form, and a local Viennese institution for anyone interested in film.
2024 was a year of great change and, at times, stressful building work. By the end of the year, we had completed construction on our new 'Filmmuseum LAB' at the Arsenal and reintroduced our much-loved "compact" program booklet. Thanks to the support of our members, friends of the Film Museum, partners and funding bodies, we have achieved almost everything we set out to do. I hope this annual report gives you a lively impression of our achievements.
