Hardly any other era was so marked by division, rupture and transformation as the period after the Second World War. In light of this, the Neue Nationalgalerie has consciously chosen the title Extreme Tension for the upcoming presentation of its postwar collection. Taking the radical performance Zerreißprobe (Stress Test) by Günter Brus as its point of departure, the Neue Nationalgalerie will show how dramatically postwar art was shaped by the tensions that existed between politics and society

To commemorate the centenary of Judit Reigl’s birth of and the acquisition of a group of important paintings by this Hungarian-born French artist, the Neue Nationalgalerie will present her first-ever solo exhibition in a German museum.
With "Mies Capsule" the Neue Nationalgalerie presents a new exhibition series in the upper hall of the Mies van der Rohe building: In the wooden cloakroom, small exhibitions on current discussions and thoughts are now regularly implemented in order to participate in socially relevant topics in a timely manner and set in dialogue with history and the collection. The first show presents works by Lu Yang and Rudolf Belling.
In autumn 2023, the Neue Nationalgalerie will present Tehching Hsieh’s work One Year Performance 1980–1981 (Time Clock Piece). Born in 1950 in Nanzhou, Pingtung, Taiwan, Tehching Hsieh became known internationally in the late 1970s and early 1980s primarily for his durational performances, each of which ran over a year.
