Wilhelm-Hack-Museum

About

The Wilhelm-Hack museum is an art institution for modern and contemporary art. It houses a diverse collection of medieval, modern and contemporary art encompassing circa 10,000 paintings, sculptures, drawings, prints, artists’ books and – gramophone records. Since 2009, the exhibition spaces of the collected are reinstalled every year, each time focussing on a different thematic aspect in order to create new perspectives as regards these works. Other exhibition series deal with special groups of works, for example the ‘Kabinettstucke’ series dedicated to works on paper in particular, or the ‘Zoom’ series, which concentrates on individual works or complexes within the collection. Alongside this, every year three to four big temporary exhibitions are shown every year. The unmistakable emblem of the Wilhelm-Hack-Museum is the ceramic facade by the Catalan painter and sculptor Joan Miro from 1979.
