Alongside their activities with Exakte
Tendenzen and later with the Kunstraum Buchberg, since the late
1970s Gertraud and Dieter Bogner have also collected works by the artists with
whom they have collaborated, as well as historical works and archive materials
connected with Dieter Bogner’s research into the tradition of constructive art
in Austria. In 2007 Gertraud and Dieter Bogner gifted the majority of their
collection to the mumok – Museum moderner Kunst Stiftung Ludwig Wien – ‘ohne
Wenn und Aber’ (with no strings attached). Comprising over 100 pictures, sculptures
and objects as well as 300 drawings, gouaches, prints, autographs, artists’
books and archive materials, it is one of the largest coherent donations ever
made to the museum. Two informative collection catalogues were subsequently
published to make the holdings more accessible to the public.
LEIDENSCHAFTLICH EXAKT. SAMMLUNG DIETER UND
GERTRAUD BOGNER IM MUMOK
In 2007 Dieter and Gertraud Bogner donated to
the mumok – Museum moderner Kunst Stiftung Ludwig Wien core complexes of their
collection, which they have been building since the late 1970s. The first
volume of a planned trilogy intended to serve as a reference work enables the
best possible use of the collection for exhibition and research purposes. A catalogue
raisonné with detailed analyses of each piece, it records the group of works
produced since 1945.

PERSPEKTIVEN IN BEWEGUNG. SAMMLUNG DIETER UND
GERTRAUD BOGNER IM MUMOK
The second
catalogue about the Collection Dieter and Gertraud Bogner at the mumok has two focal
points: reprinting key research papers by Dieter Bogner from the years between 1980
and 2004 and accurately recording and publicizing the second large group of
works from the donations made by Gertraud and Dieter Bogner to the mumok since 2007.
Subsumed under the term ‘research collection’, this publication focuses more on
the archive materials, first editions and autographs related to artwork from
the first half of the 20th century that were acquired in the context of Dieter
Bogner’s research publications and exhibition work.
