While the collection primarily focuses on the work of artists living and working in what are widely regarded as five major centers of visual art todayNew York, Los Angeles, London/Glasgow, Berlin and Cologne/Dsseldorfit also includes artists from 30 countries throughout Europe, Latin America, Asia and Africa.
