Kunstführer

The Modern Art collection of the Bayerische Staatsgemäldesammlungen in Munich is world renowned. Since 2002 the artistic milestones of the 20th and 21st century have been on display at the Pinakothek der Moderne. In addition to the largest body of works by Max Beckmann in Europe, there are exceptional paintings by Kandinsky, Kirchner and Picasso, important works by Bacon, Baselitz and Warhol, as well as current positions in painting and in new media. 0This publication introduces the artistic spectrum of the collection through an excellent choice of masterpieces. In concise essays, the curators dedicate themselves to representative movements, including the French Fauvists and Cubists, Italian Futurists, German Expressionists and the Bauhaus, as well as New Objectivity and Surrealism. Further chapters are concerned with artists in the periods surrounding World War I and under National Socialism.
