It’s your choice!

The Ludwig Collection is one of the largest and most important art collections in the world. The collection of the Ludwig Forum alone comprises over 3,000 works of art, including many works that have earned their place in any history of art and are thus an integral part of our art world heritage in the 20th century. Works of special significance include, for example, the photorealistic painting Richard by Chuck Close or the lifelike sculpture Supermarket Lady by Duane Hanson. Both of these works were brought from New York to Aachen by Peter Ludwig in 1970, well before new realism became known in Europe through the now legendary documenta 5 in 1972. What is your personal highlight? In this exhibition, our visitors were given the opportunity to be involved in deciding what should be put on show.
