Museets samling af moderne kunst omfatter internationale kunstnere som Arp, Francis Bacon, Louise Bourgeois, Calder, Dubuffet, Max Ernst, Sam Francis, Giacometti, Kiefer, Henry Moore, Picasso, Rauschenberg og Warhol. Hvert år viser Louisiana ca. 8 større udstillinger af moderne og nutidig kunst. Louisiana opleves ikke blot som en samling af nutidskunst, men også som et samspil mellem kunst, arkitektur og landskab. Parken giver ideelle muligheder for placering af museets samling af moderne skulpturer, lige som de enestående museumsbygninger, opført mellem 1958 og 1998, frembyder en spændende ramme om museets samling af det 20. århundredes kunst.

Louisiana Sculpture Park with a view of the Sound. Henry More; RECLYNING FIGURE, 1963
LOUISIANA MUSEUM OF MODERN ART Louisiana Museum of Modern Art is situated in Denmark on the North Zealand coast in a spacious, old park with a fine view across the sound of Sweden. It houses an exquisite collection of modern art by international artists such as Arp, Francis Bacon, Louise Bourgeois, Calder, Dubuffet, Max Ernst, Sam Francis, Giacometti, Kiefer, Henry Moore, Picasso, Rauschenberg and Warhol. Every year, the Louisiana Museum shows approx 8 major exhibitions of modern and contemporary art, including classical masters of modern art as well as new and upcoming international artists. Louisiana is not merely an experience in modern and contemporary art, but a congenial reflection of the interplay between art, architecture and landscape. The park serves as an ideal setting for displaying the museum’s collection of modern sculptures. Similarly the prominent museum buildings, constructed between 1958 and 1998, offer a fascinating background for the permanent collection of twentieth century art.
