It stays whole

The 301 works belong to the Baranow-Privatstiftung, a private foundation established in Vienna in 2000. No painting will ever be sold on its own. The cycle is kept, shown and passed on as one — from generation to generation.

It stays in Vienna

Vienna is where the idea was born and where the Mission is based. Our aim is a permanent home for the collection in this city — a place where the whole cycle can be seen together. The search for that place is under way.

It travels

The first exhibition of the complete cycle is planned for 2029. From 2030 the collection will travel internationally. Museums and institutions will be able to show defined series — the complete cycle, the Old or the New Testament, the twelve monumental formats — never single works.

Mission Frame

Three hundred and one works by 299 artists need one presentation, safe transport and lasting protection. For this, the Mission is developing its own framing system — the Mission Frame. Each work will be presented in it, travel in it and be kept in it.

Patronage

Each of the 301 works may have a patron. The patron is named alongside the work in the book series — permanently, next to the artist and the motif. Patrons may choose the work they wish to support. If you would like to know more, write to us.

For Partners

Mission 301 is built to last beyond its founders. The collection is held by the foundation; the work of creating, publishing, exhibiting and filming it is carried by the project. Partners who wish to be part of this — institutions, foundations, companies, individuals — are welcome to get in touch.

Mission 301 GmbH is to carry out operations and holds the exclusive commercial rights: books, exhibitions, film, licensing. Strategic investors may participate in this company.
