Art journey through time: the Art Night at the Museum Ludwig

The 20th Art Night on 11 October at the Museum Ludwig promises to be a very special event. Under the motto ‘More than Friends,’ the special exhibition ‘Five Friends’ takes centre stage, bringing together works by John Cage, Merce Cunningham, Jasper Johns, Robert Rauschenberg and Cy Twombly. Known for their mutual artistic inspiration and collaboration, this group of artists promises an interdisciplinary journey through avant-garde art movements.

Visitors familiar with art history will gain insights into how curators have shaped the reception of art for centuries. In addition to the informative guided tours, performances, interactive activities and selected DJ sets create a lively atmosphere. Cologne's reputation as an innovative and open art centre will be confirmed in many ways during this night, while the interplay of history and modern art invites guests on a cultural and historical exploration. From 11 p.m., the event will culminate in a celebration that impressively celebrates Cologne's colourful diversity and joie de vivre.

Dedicated art education meets a network of experiential and educational programmes, which raises awareness of cultural responsibility and historical contexts.
