The Lenbachhaus showcases works of contemporary art created between 1958 and the present.The Lenbachhaus very early on presented positions in feminist art in its exhibitions and acquired such works for its collection. The title “Looking at the Sun at Midnight” is borrowed from a cycle by Katharina Sieverding.

The exhibition includes works that were acquired for or given to the museum in recent years and have never been on display in our galleries—featuring, prominently, treasures from the KiCo Foundation, which has supported the Lenbachhaus’s efforts to bring contemporary art to the public for over twenty years.
