Neue Galerie

Please Note: The Neue Galerie will  be closed for the summer (as of May 27th, 2026) while they undertake construction to enhance the historic building. The doors will reopen in Autumn 2026 with a museum-wide 25th Anniversary Exhibition.



Housed in a landmark 1914 mansion, the museum is devoted to early 20th-century German and Austrian art and design. The collection covers a range of media, including painting, sculpture, works on paper, decorative arts, and photographs created in Austria and Germany between 1890 and 1940.

The second-floor galleries are dedicated to art from Vienna circa 1900, exploring the relationship that then existed between the fine arts -- of Gustav Klimt, Egon Schiele, Oskar Kokoschka, Richard Gerstl, and Alfred Kubin -- and the decorative arts.

The third-floor galleries feature German art representing various movements of the early 20th-century as well as applied arts. Artists include Kandinsky, Paul Klee, August Macke, Gabriele Münter, Marianne Brandt, Marcel Breuer, and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe; artists of the Brücke movement; the Bauhaus artists; the Neue Sachlichkeit artists, Otto Dix, George Grosz, and Christian Schad.
