“It is a privilege to continue the successful work of the Mercedes-Benz Art Collection team. For me, the fundamental idea of this great collection is in the foreground, namely to recognise the interaction with art as a benefit for social coexistence and to promote this encounter. In our work, my future team and I will keep an eye on both the general public and the employees of Mercedes-Benz and develop multifaceted, exciting dialogues with art. I am very much looking forward to this responsible task.”
Anne Vieth, future Head of the Mercedes-Benz Art Collection

Brief CV of Anne Vieth

Anne Vieth has been curator at the Kunstmuseum Stuttgart since January 2017. There, in addition to post-1945 art, she is in charge of the Otto Dix and Fritz Winter collections and curated the special exhibitions “Patrick Angus. Private Show”, “Ecstasy”, “WÄNDE | WALLS”, “From 1914 till Ukraine” and “Wolfgang Laib. The Beginning of Something Else”. From 2014 to 2016, she worked at the Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden in the area of research and scientific cooperation. Previously, she worked as a research assistant to the director at the Kunsthalle Mannheim, where she also completed her traineeship. Anne Vieth studied art history, German language and literature and Spanish literature in Hamburg, where she completed her doctorate in art history. Her research focuses on classical modernism and contemporary art.

The Mercedes-Benz Art Collection

The Mercedes-Benz Art Collection was founded in 1977 and is today one of the most important European corporate collections with museum quality and an international reputation. The collection includes around 3,000 works by approximately 800 artists, including world-famous artists such as Andy Warhol, Keith Haring, Oskar Schlemmer, Charlotte Posenenske, Andrea Zittel and Cao Fei. The Art Collection focuses on abstract-constructive pictorial concepts, critical-engaged art, as well as representative works and commissioned works on themes such as automobility, design or construction. It embodies Mercedes-Benz’s broad social commitment to culture and education. With the art collection, the company wants to create a recognisable benefit for the common good. The basis for this is Mercedes-Benz’s self-image of reacting responsibly to social issues and developments.

With exhibitions of the artworks in the company and in international museums (New York, Los Angeles, London, Johannesburg, Bilbao, Tokyo, Singapore and Buenos Aires), the Mercedes-Benz Art Collection enables a broad public interested in art to encounter the collection. The Art Collection attaches great importance to the acquisition of young art in order to contribute to a responsible support policy for young artists. Furthermore, it is strongly committed to diversity: its collecting practice is consistently oriented towards the promotion of international artists and the diversity of cultures, orientations and views. A broad spectrum of multimedia, engaged art and the further establishment of women in the collection are other focal points.
