The LUDWIG FORUM AACHEN is a multi-genre house for international contemporary art. Its basis is the art collection of Peter and Irene Ludwig that comprises key works of American Pop Art, Photo Realism and European art from the beginning 1960s to the present. This is the starting point for an attractive exhibition program. Art education offers many activities and guided tours for all ages and types of groups, available in Dutch, French and English.

Art has always played with the possibilities of illusion and deception. Their successful implementation is proof of a truly artistic mastery and a challenge for every artist since antiquity. Fascinating works of illusion and eye deception from four millennia - from an ancient Egyptian fake door to early trompe-l'oeil paintings to augmented and virtual reality - offer an exciting course through the (art) history of deception.
