Loans from other museums and private collectors are also integrated into large special exhibitions. German and international artists are represented in the collection, including great names such as Georg Baselitz, Anselm Kiefer, Katharina Grosse and Anish Kapoor. Works by the ZERO movement and its pioneers such as Lucio Fontana were among the collectors' first acquisitions.
