The Kunstmuseum Liechtenstein, located in the heart of Vaduz, is a state museum dedicated to modern and contemporary art. The museum's collection represents a significant part of the state's art collection and is an integral part of Liechtenstein's public image. The building itself, completed in November 2000, is an architectural landmark designed by Swiss architects Meinrad Morger, Heinrich Degelo, and Christian Kerez. Its sleek, minimalist black cube design, constructed of tinted concrete and black basalt stone with embedded river pebbles, makes it a standout structure in Vaduz. The museum's collection spans from the 19th century to the present, with a focus on three-dimensional works like sculptures and installations, particularly Arte Povera and Post-Minimal Art. In 2015, the museum expanded with the addition of the Hilti Art Foundation building, showcasing classical modern and contemporary art, extending the art historical scope to 130 years. Visitors can explore a mix of permanent and temporary exhibitions featuring works by international artists. The museum also offers guided tours, workshops, and educational programs for adults and children. The on-site café provides a space to relax, and the museum shop offers art books and souvenirs.
