His relentless radicalism often brought him into conflict with the censors and even landed him in prison for the sake of artistic freedom. As a keen observer, Daumier also depicted everyday life in the modern city. The ALBERTINA presented the first major Daumier exhibition in 1936 in the face of the emerging fascist regime, curated by Ernst Kris, who was later forced into exile. Ninety years later, with the support of loans from the St\u00e4del Museum Association, it is showing the French artist in a new light. In addition to numerous lithographs and drawings, some of his famous paintings and sculptures are also on display, as well as a film compilation of Daumier&#8217;s works, set to music by none other than Paul and Linda McCartney.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Honor\u00e9 Daumier \u2013 Mirror of Society<\/strong><br>06.02.2026 \u2013 25.05.2026<br>Albertina<br>Albertinaplatz 1, 1010 Vienna<br><a href=\"http:\/\/www.albertina.at\">www.albertina.at<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>06.02.2026 \u2013 25.05.2026 With a sharp pen and incorruptible humour, Honor\u00e9 Daumier held up a mirror to his time, denouncing abuse of power and social injustices.
