The Lentos Art Museum stands proudly on the banks of the Danube in Linz, a modern landmark of contemporary art and a central venue for cultural encounters in Upper Austria. Its striking, light-filled building with an elegantly curved glass façade is an experience in itself, offering views of the cityscape and the multicolored currents of 20th and 21st century art.
The Lentos presents impressive collections that reflect significant developments in modern and contemporary painting, graphic art, sculpture, and photography. Works by international and Austrian artists engage in dialogue here, and the temporary exhibitions address current issues in art and society, so that each presentation opens up new perspectives and stimulates reflection.
The museum sees itself as a public space for intense perception: light and architecture shape the visual experience and turn every visit into a journey of discovery through space, color, and form. Its location directly on the Danube also invites visitors to stroll between the urban environment and cultural engagement. Lentos offers visitors of all ages a varied program of special exhibitions, thematic series, educational programs, and events. This makes it not only a place for art lovers but also a lively meeting place where art can be experienced in the pulse of the times.
