The entrepreneurial couple Alison and Peter W. Klein collects with passion. As soon as it is time to decide on a new acquisition, they follow their credo: "art has to move us." In its wide variety, the constantly expanding collection, headquartered in Nussdorf, reveals unique evidence of a desire to see and experience art. Now, the Kunstmuseum Stuttgart is offering a first institutional look at the Klein Collection in an expansive, special exhibition. Besides the work of established artists, many newcomers will also be featured. Large avant-garde paintings meet contemporary prints, drawings, and photographs. The catalogue provides a lively tour of the show, accompanied by insightful texts by Ulrike Groos, Director of the Kunstmuseum Stuttgart; gallerist Gerrit Fries; and journalist Christiane Fricke.

The exhibition features works by artists such as Gregory Crewdson, Anette Kelm, Karin Kneffel, Anselm Kiefer, Tracey Moffatt, Markus Oehlen, Anna Oppermann, Sean Scully, Chiharu Shiota, Jorinde Voigt, among others.

Exhibition: Kunstmuseum Stuttgart 15.7.-5.11.2017
