Providing an exclusive glimpse into the renowned museum co-founded by one of the world's finest private art collectors, Ronald S. Lauder, this richly-illustrated pocket-sized guide offers readers a chance to explore the Neue Galerie's illustrious collection and its milieu.
Neue Galerie New York is a museum devoted to early twentieth-century Austrian and German art and design. It was established in the autumn of 2001 by two men who enjoyed a close friendship over a period of nearly thirty years: art dealer and exhibition organizer Serge Sabarsky and businessman, philanthropist, and art collector Ronald S. Lauder. Sabarsky and Lauder shared a passionate commitment to modern Austrian and German art and dreamed of opening a museum to showcase the finest examples of this work. After Sabarsky's death in 1996, Lauder carried on the vision of creating Neue Galerie New York as a tribute to his friend. Led by director Renée Price, the Neue Galerie is the most important museum venue in the United States to showcase Austrian and German fine and decorative art of the early twentieth century. The collection includes work by artists such as Gustav Klimt, Egon Schiele, Oskar Kokoschka, Max Beckmann, Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, and designers such as Josef Hoffmann, Koloman Moser, Dagobert Peche, Marcel Breuer, Marianne Brandt, and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, among many others. This visual guide to the Neue Galerie, its collections, and its programs, as well as its renowned Design Shop, Book Store, and Café Sabarsky, surveys the first twenty-five years of the museum's exceptional history. This is an essential companion both for aficionados of the museum and its history and for those discovering the museum and its rich offerings for the first time.
