After several months of shutdown due to the COVID-19, the Ludwig Museum will reopen on August 20th.
The first exhibition is a new selection from the museum’s collection entitled Time Machine. The exhibition was created during the short break caused by the pandemic, under extraordinary circumstances, so the organizers could not ignore the lessons of the recent period. This time, works have been selected that reveal different aspects of personal, artistic and historical time to the viewer, and the works themselves can be seen as time machines that allow us to travel mentally.
From September 4, a selection from Art Collection Telekom entitled Keeping The Balance will be on view, which seeks to answer the question how to find and maintain the right balance in a complex, contradictory and often conflict-laden reality. The selection features works by artists with mostly Eastern European roots.
The exhibition BarabásiLab: Hidden Patterns. The Language of Network Thinking will open on 10 October. It presents the last 20 years of research based on the so-called Barabási networks mainly related to the activity of physicist and network researcher Albert-László Barabási. By following the development of network visualization – presenting the main projects of Barabási research lab – the viewer can gain insight into the application of this comprehensive method in art. Using state-of-the-art technology, network diagrams and structures vividly describe the hidden connections and relationships that underlie the studied phenomena.
The Ludwig Museum, including the museum shop, is open from Tuesday to Sunday from 10 a.m. to 6 a.m.
The museum does its best to protect the health of the visitors and staff, so we ask you to wear a mask when visiting our exhibitions and keep a distance of one and a half meters in the exhibition spaces.
Please buy your tickets online if possible, or pay by card on the spot.
