The impressive collection of art housed in the Pinakothek der Moderne covers a period that extends form the highlights of German Expressionism - Ernst Ludwig Kirchner and Max Beckmann, for example - to significant works of contemporary art, such as the photographic works of Jeff Wall and Bruce Nauman´s video installations. All the familiar names of modern art are represented here - Picasso and Matisse, Dalí and Magritte, Polke and Baselitz, Warhol and Beuys.
In this book Cathrin Klingsöhr-Leroy presents the focal points of the collection, and in the introduction to each section explains the successive stylistic developments and trends. The reader is provided with information about the technique, history and significance of each of the selected works of art, which are all illustrated with high-qualitiy colour reproductions.
