The exhibition will illustrate the diverse ways in which the Quran has been experienced, read, and interpreted in Europe.

Artist Talk: Anna Heindl. The Marriage - a special presentation in the Kunstkammer

18. December, 6:30 p.m., Kunstkammer Vienna
Meeting point: Foyer of the Kunsthistorisches Museum Vienna

The jewellery artist Anna Heindl was inspired by the painting The Mystical Marriage of Saint Catherine by the Master of Heiligenkreuz for her exhibition The Marriage in the Kunstkammer of the Kunsthistorisches Museum. Heindl was particularly fascinated by the long fingers of the figures and the piece of jewellery in Catherine's hand, which symbolises the wheel of her torture. She interpreted the wheel as a symbol of standing up for convictions and incorporated this idea into a necklace designed especially for the exhibition.
