In the first half of 2020 das weisse haus hosts the nomadic Museum of Capitalism, presents Yoshinori Niwa’s first solo exhibition in Austria, and highlights its studio program with the group exhibition New Home for Horses, Cats and Canaries. Under the direction of Alexandra Grausam, das weisse haus presents local and international artists focusing on archival practices, power relations in public space, or temporary inhabitance.

January 29–April 4, 2020
Yoshinori Niwa: FROM 1 OCTOBER 2017: FACE COVER BAN IN AUSTRIA
With the use of irony and the factual activation of utopian gestures, Yoshinori Niwa examines the prevailing conditions and power relations occurring in public space. The title of the show refers to a law passed by the Austrian government to ban full-covered faces in public space. This is a starting point to deal with a wide range of intertwined topics related to politics, immigration, and identity formation.

January 29–April 4, 2020
Museum of Capitalism: Archive of the Present
Curated by FICTILIS
The show gathers materials from the Museum of Capitalism’s ongoing programming, from its founding to the present, including new images and unpublished writings. Reflecting the mission to educate our and future generations about the ideology, history, and legacy of capitalism, the museum’s archive attempts to give visibility to its own history, and the process of history-making itself. 

April 22–June 6, 2020
New Home for Horses, Cats and Canaries 
Will Benedict, Gillian Brett, Nanna Debois Buhl, Rachel Fäth, Max Freund, Ebru Kurbak, Judith Milz, Elisabeth Molin, Ryts Monet, Tintin Patrone, Sofie Thorsen, Filip Vest, Isaac Chong Wai, Jun Yang, Catherine Sarah Young, Helen Zeru and more
Curated by Malou Solfjeld
Inspired by the horses of Vienna, Schrödinger’s cat and coal-mine canaries, the exhibition deals with temporary inhabitance of all species. Presented as an imaginary travel agency where one encounters ghosts from the past, present and future such as empty cages with the sound of extinct birds from Vietnam, Danish donkeys roaming in the Caribbean, roasted chickens made out of discarded technological devices, and a frozen monkey quoting the New York Times: “The skies are emptying out.” 

April 22–June 6, 2020
Fabian Erik Patzak: Direct Transit – as part of Erste Bank ExtraVALUE Art Award 2020
Curated by Boris Ondreička
Taking public and private archival material into account, American-Austrian painter Fabian Erik Patzak delves into topics of migration, loss and multi-generational memory in order to develop the exhibition Direct Transit. As an intimate narrative based on his trans-generational experience of migration, it stimulates reflections on far-reaching socio-political and ecological issues.
