The exhibition »Painting and Sculpture from 1900 to the Present« in the Städtische Galerie offers a fascinating insight into the art history of the 20th and 21st centuries, in particular the Dresden art scene.


Classics and modernity in dialogue
In an exciting tour, you will experience paintings and sculptures from 1900 to the present day that are closely linked to the city's art history. In addition to famous names such as Otto Dix, Hermann Glöckner and A.R. Penk, you will also get to know important regional artists. One focus of the exhibition is dedicated to art from the GDR. Be inspired by these diverse perspectives – a must for art lovers and the curious alike!
Exhibition dates

Improv theatre in the museum
A different kind of art trail
Through improvisational theatre, the Yes or Never! ensemble brings the stories contained in the pictures and objects in the permanent exhibition to life together with the audience. Together with words, gestures and music, improvised, spontaneous scenes are created that capture the moment of the picture, illustrate it or interpret it in a completely new way. Anything is possible!
- Admission €15, reduced €6
