The Kunstmuseum Winterthur has one of the finest modern art collections in Switzerland with outstanding groups of works from the end of the 19th century to the present.With the museum building from 1915 (Rittmeyer & Furrer) and the extension opened in 1995 (Gigon & Guyer), the collection has an impressive structural framework.While the old building is dedicated to French art of the turn of the century (van Gogh, Monet, Bonnard, Vallotton), Cubism (Braque, Gris, Léger) and other currents of classical modernism (Arp, Klee, Magritte, Mondrian), international contemporary art (Guston, Marden, Kelly, Richter, Merz) is shown in the extension building.Parallel to the collection, the Kunstmuseum regularly hosts temporary exhibitions from the same period as the collection - retrospectives of individual artists and thematic exhibitions. They are complemented by exhibitions of drawings and prints in the Graphic Cabinet.
