VKB

VKB Bank places great importance on supporting Linz09 during the Capital of Culture year. As an independent regional financial institution headquartered in Upper Austria, we regard a rich and varied cultural environment as an essential part of what makes this a great place to live and thrive. That’s why we’ve been subsidizing art and culture for many years. By stepping forward as lead sponsor of the first exhibition in the South Wing of the new Schlossmuseum, VKB Bank is proud to be helping Linz make a statement during this Capital of Culture year that will resound beyond the borders of this region. “The European Green Belt” is an exhibition that stands for the connection to nature that recognizes no national frontiers and thus applies the world over to all humankind. With our strong commitment to culture, VKB is also a major benefactor of the Upper Austrian Monastery Concerts series. Alfred Schnittke’s Symphony No. 2 “St. Florian” promises to be one of the absolute highlights of 2009, Linz’s year as European Capital of Culture.
