 Louisiana
Museum of Modern Art is situated north of Copenhagen on the North Zealand
coast in a spacious, old park with a fine view across the sound of Sweden.
It houses an exquisite collection of modern art by international artists
such as Arp, Francis Bacon, Calder, Dubuffet, Max Ernst, Sam Francis,
Giacometti, Kiefer, Henry Moore, Picasso, Rauschenberg and Warhol.
Every year, the Louisiana Museum shows six to eight major exhibitions
of modern and contemporary art, including classical masters of modern
art as well as new and upcoming international artists. For these both
solo and group exhibitions the museum publishes catalogues in the Louisiana
Revy series as well as special catalogues.
 Louisiana
is not merely an experience in modern and contemporary art, but a congenial
reflection of the interplay between art, architecture and landscape. The
park serves as an ideal setting for displaying the museum’s collection
of modern sculptures. Similarly the prominent museum buildings, constructed
between 1958 and 1998, offer a fascinating background for the permanent
collection of twentieth century art.
The relaxing atmosphere, the museum’s permanent collection, changing
exhibitions of art, films, concerts, the children’s wing, the café service
indoors and outdoors, the museum shop with its large selection of books,
art reproductions, graphics, posters, postcards, design and classical
CDs - all combine in making Louisiana a pleasure to visit.
