AmCham Austria and the Arts It is with great pleasure that the American Chamber of Commerce in Austria has accepted the patronage of the exhibition “ Illusions of Eden - Visions of the American Heartland ” on display at Palais Liechtenstein in Vienna. While one of the main objectives of the American Chamber of Commerce in Austria is to promote business relations between the United States and Austria, the strengthening of cultural ties between our two countries constitutes an important means to further and deepen mutual understanding. Therefore, the Chamber has decided to continue its artistic focus in this direction in 2001. In close cooperation with the Museum of Modern Art Stiftung Ludwig in the Palais Liechtenstein, a new section of the Chamber's monthly Newsletter was dedicated to the masterpieces and to the artists of the exhibition, as well as a preview of the exposition. The members of the Chamber received detailed information on the Public Programs of the museum and had the opportunity to attend a private viewing of the exhibition. The American Chamber of Commerce in Austria is proud to be a part of this very special cultural event and hopes to continue its support of the arts in Vienna. The Chamber has been a patron of two other major exhibitions: "AMERICA - The New World in 19th Century Painting" at the …sterreichische Galerie Belvedere from March until June 1999 as well as "Sigmund Freud - Conflict and Culture" and "Sigmund Freud - Relations to the Unconscious / Psychoanalysis in Progress" exhibited at the Sigmund Freud Museum and in the Austrian National Library from October 1999 until February 2000.       AmCham Austria   Porzellangasse 35 A-1090 Vienna Tel: +43 1 319 57 51 Fax: +43 1 319 51 51 Info-Line: 0900 833 933 (Euro 1,08 / min) office@amcham.at
