Dazzling Highlights Of The Collection Include Works By Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, August Macke, Max Beckmann, Pablo Picasso, Jackson Pollock, Willem De Kooning, Mark Rothko, Gerhard Richter, Georg Baselitz, Markus Lüpertz, And Sigmar Polke. More Recent Positions In Painting And Photog­Raphy Encompass Works By Artists Such As Gregory Crewdson, Axel Hütte, Karin Kneffel, And Neo Rauch.
