Die Städ­ti­sche Samm­lung Erlangen - Multi­pli­zierte Kunst seit den 1960er Jahren - Dauerausstellung

In the organizer's words:

The Kunstpalais includes the Erlangen Municipal Collection, which currently comprises well over 4,500 works. Its focus is on international multiplied art: graphics, multiples and artists' books as well as photography and video works.

Since the collection was started in 1966, it has grown immensely, both through donations from artists and private individuals and through purchases from the municipal budget. It sees itself as a history of ideas in art after 1945: whether Pop Art, Op Art, Land Art, Concrete Art or Art Informel - all important art movements from the post-war period to the present day are represented in Erlangen.

Every year, carefully selected new works are added to the collection in order to continue to represent the latest art history with its most important representatives.

The tasks associated with the collection include not only its preservation, research and continuation. Showing and communicating these treasures is also important to us. The works from the Municipal Collection can therefore be seen in thematic group exhibitions at the Kunstpalais as well as in our own collection presentations. The new acquisitions of each year are presented in the blog and, where possible, presented in the exhibition rooms when they arrive.
