SAMMLUNG VERBUND collection brings art since the 1970s into dialogue with contemporary positions. During this period, many artists moved away from painting and created completely new forms of expression. They began to discover their own bodies as a medium. Concepts like feminism, post-modernism, the spatialization of art, the questioning of identities, and self-staging acquired central importance. Photography, video, and film established themselves as independend art forms.

Today, the SAMMLUNG VERBUND collection includes over 800 works by 93 artists. Its objective is to discover individual artistic positions that have been hidden until now and make them visible, thereby leaving a trace in our cultural memory.
