Kunst Graphik Design Architektur

In 2002, four unique museums moved into the newly constructed Pinakothek der Moderne, thus founding one of the largest institutions of twentieth and twenty-first century art and culture in the world. To celebrate their fifteenth anniversary, the Architekturmuseum der Technischen Universitat Munchen (Architecture Museum at the Munich Technical University), the Bayerische Staatsgemaldesammlungen (Bavarian State Collection of Paintings), Die Neue Sammlung – The Design Museum (The New Collection – The Design Museum), and the Staatliche Graphische Sammlung Munchen (State Collection of Prints, Munich) will open up their collections and take readers on a kind of interdisciplinary tour through two hundred eleven collection highlights of architecture, visual and applied arts, prints, and design. Including eight essays which provide an overview of the cultural-historical developments in the decades between 1895 and 2017, the interplay among the genres reveals a glimpse into modernism’s cultural history. A special guide for visitors to the museum and an addition for the library at home.
