Glass in its technical diversity and brilliant colours is presented by Die Neue Sammlung in a selection of its highlights. Serially produced hollow glass for everyday use, unique, free-form glass objects as well as architecture-related designs: the presentation not only shows the fascination of colourless and coloured glass, but also technical craftsmanship, versatile formal language and differing functional requirements. The history of the collection is also reflected here: since the museum was founded in 1925, it has collected internationally and contemporary work.
In a spatial staging, design, craftsmanship and free art are interwoven and complemented by positions from the fields of architecture and photography.
With regard to the museum's 100th anniversary, Die Neue Sammlung is setting new thematic priorities in its rooms.
