Exhibition "Hollywood in Josefstadt" (a district of Vienna)
 
Schild Hollywood in der Josefstadt
 

The exhibition presents personalities who lived in the Josefstadt, who worked or started their artistic career here. Amongst them were the actor Leon Askin, Gisela Werbezirk, Hedy Lamarr, Curd Juergens, Hans Jaray, Maximilian Schell and the directors Billy Wilder, Otto Preminger, Max Reinhardt, Fritz Lang and Fritz Kortner. In this exhibition these personalities are brought back to Josefstadt, the place which they had left - not always willingly.

One of the main themes of the exhibition is Leon Askin. Included in the exhibition is a large collection of photographs, the costume of "Tschang" from the Volksopera, personal objects, manuscripts and awards as well as videos.
