The second exhibition of selected works of art from the Infeld Collection shown in the State Gallery of the Burgenland in Eisenstadt in 1999 depicted a different range of the Infeld Collection, which was founded in 1965 with the purchase of the first paintings by Margareta and Peter Infeld. The broad spectrum of contemporary art in the collection is due to a very personal affinity and emotional relationship with each work of art.
