Stamp issue of Austrian Post to mark 150 Years MAK/Museum of Applied Arts

The Austrian Museum for Applied Arts/Contemporary Art is a centre for art, design and architecture. It goes beyond being a place for presenting art and also strives to build bridges between art, the manufacturing industry and businesses.

To mark its 150th birthday, the MAK is presenting three exhibitions. The highlight of the anniversary year will be the show "Ways to Modernism. Josef Hoffmann, Adolf Loos, and Their Impact" from December 2014.

The other two presentations open this July: In "Exemplary: From Arts and Crafts to Design" and "After-Images: Exhibitions in Pictures".

On the day of issue, the special post office will be cancelling mail items with the special first-day postmark.
