Quite astonishing - a work of art by Georg Baselitz in the bare brickwork of King Ludwig II unfinished palace

---

Artworks from the Pinakothek der Moderne in Herrenchiemsee Palace During the summer of 2015 the North Wing of Herrenchiemsee Palace, built by Ludwig II, provides the dazzling setting for artworks from the Pinakothek der Moderne. This remarkable place is witness to an encounter between modernity and tradition, Europe and America. Rooms devoted to the artists display important works by Georg Baselitz, Arnulf Rainer, Imi Knoebel and John Chamberlain in response to space-filling installations by Dan Flavin, Andy Warhol, Willem de Kooning, and John Chamberlain. Here, where it had been impossible to realise the utopia of unlimited beauty, there is space for the reality of contemporary art.
