Kunst von der Romantik bis zur Gegenwart: Das Albertinum in Dresden

Art from the Romantic period to the present day

Walking through the Albertinum is like opening a museum-sized art history reference work and leafing through its pages. With a range extending from Romanticism to the present, the Albertinum is a place where painting meets sculpture, East meets West and today meets tomorrow.

Founded in 1959, the Galerie Neue Meister is the youngest museum of the Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden. Its collection initially came from the Gemäldegalerie Alte Meister for which contemporary art was increasingly acquired after 1843.
History of the collection

Gerhard Richter

Gerhard Richter is one of the most significant artists of the 20th and 21st centuries. His oeuvre covers a period of nearly five decades. The artist is connected to the Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden and his birthplace Dresden in a unique way through the Gerhard Richter Archive, which was founded here and is named after him.
