• August Walla – where he lived & worked

meet the museum gugging! This introduction tells the story of the building's development from a mental health and care facility to a museum and explains the special nature of Art Brut and its great fascination for other artists.

The museum gugging is not just a platform for the Artists from Gugging but also a forum for international Art Brut and contemporary art. It is a dynamic (artistic) site where self-taught artists realize visions with openness and creativity. Through the power of their creativity, the Artists from Gugging, former psychiatric patients, have found a way to become professional artists.

Their artistic paths are autonomous and uninfluenced by society or current trends. The revelation of this individual path of Art Brut (unadulterated, raw art) and Naive Art is precisely what impresses many other artists and visitors and inspires their own creativity. 

Our current permanent exhibition "gugging.! classic & contemporary – update" and the special exhibition "herrera & dubuffet.! a spark of light in this world | Museum Gugging" presents highlights by the Artists from Gugging as well as exciting international Art Brut positions. Enjoy an active and dialogue-oriented guided tour. 

Duration: 75-90 minutes
Price: € 60.00 for tour guide, plus entrance fee € 7.00 per person

As a team-building event or based on a shared interest, our workshop offers time and space to get creative again. 

This two-hour allows participants to try out the techniques of the Gugging Artists. These include drawing with ink like Johann Garber, drawing on top of newspaper clippings like Leopold Strobel or experimenting with the collage technique often used as a means of expression in Art Brut. The art education team will present techniques and materials to try out and use to create your own ideas. 

Duration: 120 minutes
Price: € 70.00 for workshop, plus entrance fee € 7.00 per person
