Another exhibition noted in my time schedule:
As from autumn 2005, the Kunstsammlung NRW will show a selection of exquisite loans from internationally renowned museums - such as the important collections of modern art in London, New York, Paris, St. Petersburg and from private collectors. This big exhibition of works from Matisse, the first in a German-speaking country since more than twenty years, will show about eighty paintings, supplemented by high-quality drawings and sculptures.
Henri Matisse: Figure Colour Space (kind of slide show on that site)
My state's gallery:
North Rhine-Westphalia's Art Collection - Kunstsammlung NRW
Location: Duesseldorf
In its forty year history the Kunstsammlung NRW has established its own unmistakable profile as a museum for 20th century art, and has long been recognised internationally for its outstanding collection of paintings, including works by Picasso, Braque, Ernst, Chagall, Léger, Klee.
Since 2002 its collection expanded into a new museum and building, called "K 21". Here the work that the Kunstsammlung has carried out so successfully in the past enters a new era, with international contemporary art and art of the 21st century.
