25 YEARS OF WESTLICHT
ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATIONS 6 EXHIBITION OPENING – A COMPLETE SUCCESS!
For 25 years, Vienna’s photography museum WestLicht has been a central hub of international photography: as an exhibition venue, camera museum, forum for discourse, and meeting place for photographers, collectors, and photography enthusiasts from around the world.
To mark this anniversary, WestLicht is celebrating not only its own history, but also 200 years of photography.
Opening & Open House Day
We are also delighted with the opening of PLATON. PEOPLE POWER and the Open House Day: with approximately 400 visitors attending the opening of the current exhibition and an impressive 620 visitors on Open House Day, it once again became clear that WestLicht continues to be a central venue for photography in Vienna.
As part of its anniversary program, WestLicht will additionally present the exhibitions WORLD PRESS PHOTO 2026 in the fall, and FALSE TRUTHS, an exhibition devoted to photographic manipulation — from the beginnings of the medium to artificial intelligence.
