Founded by the philanthropist couple Eli and Edythe Broad in 2015, the Broad is home to the Broad Collection, with over 2,000 works from the Post-War period and Contemporary era. In the museum, also celebrated for its authentic building designed by Diller Scofidio + Renfro, there also exists an artwork library for temporary loans that has already served over 500 museums and galleries so far, in addition to the gallery spaces.
The collection’s artist list focusing on the last five decades is literally dizzying: In addition to unforgetable masters like Alexander Calder, Cy Twombly, John Baldessari and Joseph Beuys, living legends including Jeff Koons, Doug Aitken, Andreas Gursky and Damien Hirst are also featured.
