The Museum Frieder Burda is one of the most prominent high-quality private art collections in Germany. Important works of German expressionism are represented alongside masterpieces by Georg Baselitz, Sigmar Polke, and Gerhard Richter. Less known to the public is the considerable number of important works of younger contemporary art, which have been acquired over the past years. With 80 works by 26 artists, the Museum Franz Gertsch in Switzerland is now presenting an exquisite selection of these paintings and drawings by a broad range of contemporary artists.

Anna Wesle is a curator at the Museum Franz Gertsch in Burgdorf, Switzerland.
