In the organizer's words:

**Classics from the collection: Ruisdael to Giacometti**

The Von der Heydt Museum's impressive collection, with a clear focus on the 19th century and classical modernism, is being presented for the first time in many years in a permanent and newly designed exhibition. This newly conceived presentation of the collection shows selected paintings and sculptures from the 17th century to the 1960s - many of which are popular works with the public.

The arrangement of the exhibits is particularly remarkable: under the title "Times and Spaces", the works are arranged like a visual travel guide that leads through important epochs and spaces in European art history over the last few centuries. Stops in the Netherlands and Flanders, in the art metropolises of Paris and Berlin as well as in the lesser-known town of Worpswede, which nevertheless provided important impulses, are highlighted. The exhibition does not follow a chronological order in the classical sense, but rather focuses on artistic networks. On display are works by Ludwig Richter, Gustave Courbet, Hans von Marées, Paul Gauguin, Claude Monet, Paula Modersohn-Becker, Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, Otto Dix, Hans Arp and Alberto Giacometti, among others.
