Information About

Kunstmuseum Stuttgart




The Kunstmuseum Stuttgart is a recently opened (March 2005 ) art museum in Stuttgart , Germany .

The cubic museum building with 5000 m&2 of display space was designed by Berlin architects Hascher and Jehle. During the day it looks like a glass cube, and at nights the interior lighted Limestone walls become visible.

The museum's collection comes from the previous "Galerie der Stadt Stuttgart". The city's collection goes back to a gift from the Marchese Silvio Della Valle Di Casanova in 1924 . It contains one of the most important collections of the work of Otto Dix and also works from Willi Baumeister , Adolf Hölzel , Dieter Roth , and others.
