The exhibition presents objects from the Munich Chess & Cultural Foundation: record covers with chess motifs, roll-ups with background information, chess set with musicians' pieces, Arnold Schönberg's Coalition Chess recreated by Georg Schweiger, and other objects and much more.

Arnold Schönberg's Coalition Chess for 4 players: Play and participate in the further development of the rules! Arnold Schönberg developed his own chess game almost exactly 100 years ago, with pieces designed by him. The game is played by four players. Georg Schweiger, head of the Munich Chess & Cultural Foundation, has had these special pieces reproduced. There are also planes and submarines. Schönberg's Coalition Chess will be on display at the Mozarteum at the end of February - and, more importantly, will be playable.

The details of the rules need a revision: If you want to play a game and contribute to the rule change, please contact:
