Pop Art is represented by works of Andy Warhol and Claes Oldenburg, Robert Rauschenberg and Jasper Johns and others; Fluxus and Nouveau Réalisme by creations of Daniel Spoerri, Nam June Paik, Yoko Ono, George Brecht and Marcel Duchamp.

Viennese Actionism, Austria's radical and essential contribution to the international development of avant-garde art, is excellently documented with works by Günter Brus, Otto Muehl, Hermann Nitsch and Rudolf Schwarzkogler. This section of the exhibition will be complemented by the "20th Paint Action" of Hermann Nitsch in the baroque stables of the Vienna MuseumsQuartier.

In its cupola hall, the MUMOK presents art history from classic modern works up to the present, ranging from Kupka to Kandinsky and from Mondrian to Moore.
