Anniversary campaign for Museum Ludwig, Cologne

“In 2026, the Museum Ludwig will celebrate its fiftieth anniversary by looking back on half a century filled with trailblazing exhibitions, major acquisitions, and significant developments in art. Since its foundation in 1976, made possible through a donation by the collectors Peter and Irene Ludwig to the city of Cologne, the museum has established itself as one of Europe’s leading institutions for modern and contemporary art.”
