In Germany’s museum landscape the Kunstmuseum Bonn plays a specific role. You can already note the claim for an international level when taking a look at the much praised museum construction of the Berlin-based architect Axel Schultes, which was opened in 1992.

The Kunstmuseum Bonn is a museum of modern art of the 20th century. The collection’s centres of gravity are “August Macke and the Rhenish Expressionists” and “German art after 1945”. In hardly any other German museum it is possible to track the development lines of German art as good as here. Both centres of gravity of the collection are discussed internationally and have been expanded by works of Robert Delaunay, for example, in the Macke department, in order to illustrate the changing influence of the national and international flow of art.

With its changing exhibitions the museum concentrates on the international art scene of the 20th century, which is reflected in subject-related exhibitions, as well as individual representations.
