German Art Museums






 
Art and Exhibition Hall of the Federal Republic of Germany

A German prestige object is online. Special exhibits for art and culture history, science and technology are shown here. Congresses, theatre, filming and music events take place in this architectural splendor as well. The site layout attempts to underline those cultural ambitions by presenting big characters and posters. A lot of informative texts are offered: the special exhibitions (currently among others: Museet Stockholm, Buddhist art, 100 years of Austrian art) with social, historical and cultural background stories on the architecture and the exhibition conception. And much information for tourists and visitors is available.

   
Museum of Modern Arts in Frankfurt on Main

The Museum of Modern Arts in Frankfurt on the Main, which opened in 1991, is known not only for its great number of contemporary artworks but also for ist unusual architecture, i.e. ist resemblance to a "pie slice". You can find a short text on special exhibitions, visitor information and works by many artists, especially (but not only) pop artists. Some names? Paik, Naumann, Oldenburg, Palermo, Polke, Rosenquist, Stella.

 
   
 
New Museum Weserburg Bremen

It's introduced here as "the greatest museum of contemporary art in Germany". But this online presentation is not the greatest with respect to layout and graphics. Texts are compiled without care, artists' names are listed ad infinitum. But at least the exhibition is very comprehensive and offers a great number of texts and images about international contemporary art over the last 40 years. Let's hope that bad online impressions don't stop any tourist of the Hanseatic city from visiting this authentic museum situated directly on the Weser river. It is a real highlight.
