On the Grid : Ludwig Museum

"Ludwig Museum – Museum of Contemporary Art collects and displays masterpieces of modern and contemporary art. The permanent collection contains pieces by American pop art masters (like Warhol and Oldenburg), while temporary exhibitions focus more on Eastern and Central European Art. Vernissages and finissages are always cool events with lots of art-loving locals." - Budapest Design Week

"Ludwig Museum of Contemporary Art Ludwig museums crop up frequently throughout Europe—the Ludwigs were avid German art collectors who were also generous enough to make large donations and establish institutions in places like Cologne since the late 1980s—and Budapest is no exception. The collection of this particular Ludwig Museum, like the others, focuses on art made since the 1960s. Unlike the others, it has a decidedly Hungarian focus. Rotating exhibitions feature much avant-garde and often Eastern European art not easily or often seen elsewhere. The museum itself, which is situated inside the Müpa complex, is an airy, unadorned space to view the works."

A wonderful collection of modern art, we spent a fun two hours explorimg this place. I would highly recommend a visit to the Ludwig if you are in Budapest.

I absolutely loved my visit! The museum had such a peaceful atmosphere, and the exhibits were both bold and thought-provoking. I especially appreciated the works by local Hungarian artists. A must visit if you’re into modern and contemporary art ✨

Very beautiful on the outside and very empty on the inside. There are few exhibits in my opinion, the whole first floor is completely closed, all the literature in the shop is in Hungarian, I wish there were books on art and architecture in English as well. In general, it is worth a visit to broaden your horizons, but you should not expect much

Fine collection of modern art with a regional perspective, and of course the expected Picassos. Current exhibition “Big Bang” is portrayed as, and feels very much, like afterthought without real punch.

Currently most of the museum's offer is not available due to renovation. What is worse, there is no warning about it! Moreover, there is a sign inviting people to enter, saying that they're renovating the information desk, but "exhibitions remain open". That is not at all true, as only a fraction is available, and I feel cheated! The person selling tickets just sold me a ticket like everything is normal.

Awesome space, I didn't like the exhibition though. The one in the second floor was cool but the one in the first floor didn't catch me.

Very good exhibition in early 2025 on contemporary women's art, mainly from central and Easter Europe. There are quite a few very strong pieces. There were no nudes and no reference to sex which did make me wonder if the curators were taking care not to offend the conservative cultural sensibilities of the regime in power.

Worth the visit for anyone interested in contemporary art. There's always something new to see and learn there. This time I visited young contemporary Hungarian artists exhibition, this is what I appreciate the most - to see it "from the kitchen"
