Press kit: Ida Maly 
Negotiating the Stylistic Maze
22.10.21 – 09.01.22 (extended to 27.2.)

The Austrian artist Ida Maly (1894–1941) lived and worked in Vienna, Munich, Berlin and Paris. Sectioned in the late 1920s as a “schizophrenic“ at a psychiatric institution, she continued to create works there that seem to foreshadow the atrocities of the National Socialists’ euthanasia programmes for patients in psychiatric clinics. In 1941, Ida Maly was murdered at the Schloss Hartheim euthanasia centre. Her work is a highly gifted artist’s testimony to the allegedly Golden Twenties, the era when, negotiating the stylistic maze, she found her own artistic language.
