In the galleries or on the grounds, The Kreeger Museum is proud to offer visitors the opportunity to experience the joy and wonder of art, architecture and music.

The Kreeger is an excellent example of Johnson's references to the past by incorporating a modernist vocabulary.

About the artist

Born in Dusseldorf, Germany, Rainer Lagemann has lived in San Francisco Bay Area since 1988. Today Lagemann resides in Miami, where he creates modern metal sculptures from small steel squares, welding them into modern interpretations of the human body or abstract variations of contemporary sculptures. Trained as an interior architect, Lagemann arrived to sculpture later in his life, but his unique treatment of material and subject matter earned him immediate international recognition. Rainer’s works have been exhibited around the world, including Canada, Singapore, Europe, and dozens of world-renowned art fairs, and are also part of prestigious private and corporate collections
