Focus on the illustrator Erwin Moser
The Caricature Museum Krems’ exhibition will help you explore the illustrator Erwin Moser via a very personal selection of his best original work. Perhaps you remember grandfather bear reading from the “Fantastische Gute-Nacht-Geschichten” ("Fantastic Bedtime Stories") whilst sitting in his green sofa chair, or the “Karierte Uhu” ("The Chequered Owl") or the adventurous mice Manuel and Didi from “Kleine Mäuseabenteuer” ("Little Mouse Adventures")? You will encounter these and many more fantastic figures in Krems’ Erwin Moser cosmos.

Unique: the surrealistic black-and-white pictures on display will give you insights into Erwin Moser's early artistic phase.

The originals are from Ruth Moser’s private collection, Erwin Moser's widow.
