For the first time, the exhibition “Five Friends” focuses on a circle of artists who had a decisive influence on post-war art in the fields of music, dance, painting, sculpture and drawing. John Cage, Merce Cunningham, Jasper Johns, Robert Rauschenberg and Cy Twombly created a special connection between the artistic genres and media through their intimate exchange.

About the exhibition
With over one hundred and fifty works of art, scores, stage props, costumes, photographs and archival materials, the exhibition provides an insight into the interplay between the five befriended artists. Museum Brandhorst is also shedding new light on Cy Twombly’s work, which forms a central focus of the collection.
The exhibition will be complemented by a varied accompanying program of dance performances and concerts in Cy Twombly’s Roses Gallery, which will focus on the works of Merce Cunningham and John Cage.
The exhibition is organized in cooperation with Museum Ludwig in Cologne.
