Guided Story
Take a moment to look around and feel the history surrounding you. Did you know that when the Neue Pinakothek was founded in 1853, it was one of the first museums to focus on contemporary art? Quite the trailblazer for its time. Look up, isn't the architecture by Alexander von Branca almost like a piece of art itself? Just behind you, nearby, is the "Two-Piece Reclining Figure: Points," a sculpture as intriguing as the paintings inside. If you listen closely, you might almost hear the whispers of past artists. As you wander further, imagine all the people who've experienced art here before you – you're part of a rich tradition.
