Our Present
The Collections of the MGKSiegen
The artistic perspectives of the Rubens Prize winners in the Lambrecht-Schadeberg Collection are brought together with works from the collection of Contemporary Art. This new presentation of the MGKSiegen collections can be understood as bringing the past to mind in the present. The exhibition conveys a multi-perspective on diverse ideas about the contemporary.
