Langen Foundation, Contemporary art museum in Neuss, Germany
The Langen Foundation exhibits modern and contemporary artworks inside a minimalist concrete, glass, and steel building designed by architect Tadao Ando in 2004.
Marianne and Viktor Langen collected 500 Japanese artworks from the 12th to 19th centuries during business trips to Japan before establishing their foundation in 2002.
The collection spans Asian art from multiple countries and Western modernism, featuring works by Cézanne, Beckmann, Warhol, Rothko, Dubuffet, Bacon, and Polke.
Three exhibition spaces covering 1,300 square meters include a specialized Japan Room at ground level and two subterranean galleries with eight-meter-high ceilings.
The museum building stands on a former NATO rocket base, integrating contemporary architecture with historical military grounds through reinforced concrete structures.
