Wild Apollo’s Arrows. Klopstock Cult & Ossian Fever 
Exhibition views
 

7 March – 25 May 2025 
This exhibition presents significant artistic works that exemplify this epochal shift from the Enlightenment to the irrationalism of the Storm and Stress movement and Romanticism. For the first time, the immense influence of the poet Friedrich Gottlieb Klopstock on the fine arts and music of his own age is explored. 

In parallel to the exhibition Wild Apollo’s Arrows. Klopstock Cult & Ossian Fever in three rooms at the Paintings Gallery and three at the Exhibit Gallery, we continue to present our collection in the Paintings Gallery with alternating thematic focuses under the motto Considering the Collection.


Venue: Academy of Fine Arts Vienna, Paintings Gallery & Exhibit Gallery, Schillerplatz 3, 1010 Vienna
