Ein Dokumentarfilm von Marianne Kapfer, 94 Minuten, 2010
Mit Bernd und Hilla Becher, Thomas Struth, Thomas Ruff, Candida Höfer, Jörg Sasse, Lothar Schirmer u. a.
In diesem Dokumentarfilm erzählt das Düsseldorfer Künstlerpaar von seinem Leben, Werk und Wirken, das vier Jahrzehnte lang dem Fotografieren von Industriebauten gewidmet war. Der Film führt über die Jahre hinweg zu verschiedenen Stationen der Bechers durch die Industrielandschaften Europas und der USA. Wie entstehen Becher-Fotos? Schwarz-weiß, nüchtern präzise, vor immer grauen Hintergrund von leicht erhöhtem Standpunkt aus aufgenommen…Vom Warten aufs richtige Licht bis zur Auswahl des optimalen Standpunkts für die Kamera – die Bechers geben im Film einen Einblick in ihre Werkstatt.
Mit ihrem Werk haben sie nicht nur ein dauerhaftes Oeuvre geschaffen, sondern auch ihre Inspiration und Ansichten weitergegeben an drei Generationen von Fotografen, die die dokumentäre Kunstfotografie vertieft und weitergeführt haben. Ihr Sohn Max Becher und Studenten der Bechers wie die Fotografen Thomas Ruff, Candida Höfer, Jörg Sasse und Matthias Koch ergänzen im Film das Bild von den beiden Künstlerpersönlichkeiten.

My Suitcase is my Oyster
After “When heroes quake” the next blitz concerning jewelry. For those who were not there, we have provided first pictures.
Leaving the studio of the artist, jewelry looks for his place. Often the road is long. In boxes packed, by customs officials fingered, rayed at the airport. Arrival at the place of revelation. The cases have come to rest. Open like clams. The jewelry reveals itself. Now the jewelry is visible. And ready to go with you on future visits. As for millennia. On land, sea and air. You show the world your jewelry. And your jewelry, which you show the world. Nice that we tremble no longer at the customs!
In the exhibition My Suitcase is my Oyster jewelry and objects by the students of the class Manon van Kouswijk the Rietveld Academie Amsterdam and Künzli Class of the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich can be seen.

Display. Design from the Netherlands
Jan Eisenloeffel, De Stijl and Droog – the names imply the sheer breadth of Dutch design and forge a link from early Modernism through to the present-day. Die Neue Sammlung consciously chose a small, concentrated selection on the topic from its Museum collection and is not showing the items in isolation as a special show, but in the context of the permanent exhibition on international design history.

Neo Rauch | Corinna Rösner
We had a very famous and very pleasant visitor in our museum’s library: Neo Rauch. During the preparations for his exhibition in Pinakothek der Moderne – curated by Bernhart Schwenk – Neo Rauch needed a quiet retreat to talk with selected journalists, and to relax. This haven was the library of Die Neue Sammlung. And we had a very inspiring chat about cars and car design and the futuristic Tatra 87 of 1937, which Die Neue Sammlung shows in Pinakothek der Moderne!
