Lonely Planet review

The triangular Museum für Moderne Kunst, dubbed the 'slice of cake' by locals, is an excellent and imaginatively run exhibition space with a permanent collection containing works by Roy Lichtenstein, Claes Oldenburg and Joseph Beuys. Temporary exhibits showcase local, national and international artists.

Inside, labyrinthine passages display exhibits from odd angles, from tiny, elevated viewing balconies or unobtrusive side entrances. Some are hidden in narrow staircases and cubbyholes; others fill a whole wall. All the major art players of the past 50 years are represented, from Roy Lichtenstein to Francis Bacon, Claes Oldenburg to Joseph Beuys. Temporary exhibits showcase local, national and international artists.
