Egon Schiele Art Centrum, Art museum in Český Krumlov, Czech Republic.
The Egon Schiele Art Centrum is an art museum in Český Krumlov that displays both permanent and changing exhibitions of 20th and 21st century works. The venue combines its historical structure with a contemporary approach to presenting artworks across multiple exhibition areas.
The museum preserves personal belongings of Austrian expressionist painter Egon Schiele from his lifetime between 1890 and 1918, including furniture, correspondence, and photographs. This collection provides a direct window into the artist's life through his own objects.
The center serves as a workspace where contemporary artists from across Europe spend extended periods working on their projects. This cross-cultural exchange between Eastern and Western artistic communities shapes the venue's role in the local cultural scene.
The museum is accessible to all visitors with barrier-free entry and accepts various payment methods including credit cards. Educational programs are available for school groups visiting the venue.
The museum documents a family connection between Schiele and Český Krumlov through his mother Marie Soukupová, who was born in the town. This genealogical link is illustrated in the exhibition through Schiele's family tree documentation and related materials.
