The spectacular new museum buildings, the growing number of visitors all over the world, clearly show the fundamental changes that museums went through during the last couple of decades. The new museums are not only places for keeping and preserving priceless works of art, museums also educate and entertain masses of people.

On the occasion of the 20th anniversary of its first permanent exhibition, Ludwig Museum Budapest reflects on the topic of the museum, that is on itself, through the critical works of Hungarian and international neo-avant-garde artists, as well as through the ironic, witty works of contemporary artists, many of which can be seen for the first time in Hungary.
