Museum Brandhorst
Theresienstraße 35a, 80333 München
Vividly striped museum of contemporary art wrapped in thousands of glazed ceramic rods.
This guide to Museum Brandhorst in Munich follows Anette and Udo Brandhorst, a soap-fortune heiress and an art dealer's son who began quietly collecting Andy Warhol, Cy Twombly, and other contemporary artists together starting in 1971. It turns on 1999, when Anette died and Udo faced a choice about what to do with the collection they had built for decades, and the condition he set for Bavaria before handing it over. Step inside to see the striped ceramic facade up close, and the room upstairs designed hand in hand with Twombly himself.
