At Deutsche Bank, we believe contemporary art has the ability to energize our workplaces as well as to revitalize our communities. With over 50,000 works, Deutsche Bank has the largest corporate art collection in the world. Sharing works from the global collection for public display reaffirms the Bank’s conviction that art brings people together and invigorates communities through cultural exchange.

Contemporary art by emerging and renowned artists has been continually integrated into Deutsche Bank’s work environment since 1978. Today, nearly 50,000 works are on view in conference rooms, hallways, elevators, and reception areas from Frankfurt to New York to Singapore.

With the largest corporate art collection in the world, Deutsche Bank stands heads above the crowd. Many pieces by well-recognized artists were purchased early on. The goal of the "Art at Work" program is to encourage greater public understanding and appreciation of contemporary art, across cultures and between generations. Employees, clients, and visitors have the opportunity to live with and experience art outside of museums and galleries.

Works on paper are the focus of the Deutsche Bank Americas collection, which includes drawings, prints, and photographs. Through buying works on paper by living artists and displaying them in our offices in the Americas, the Bank seeks to contribute vital support to contemporary artists and their galleries, while creating a visually diverse and stimulating work environment.

By sponsoring major museum exhibitions of contemporary fine artists, and partnering with local arts organizations, Deutsche Bank’s CSR Americas group seeks to contribute positively to urban communities and to the artistic landscape of the Americas. As a major patron of the arts, Deutsche Bank has forged partnerships with leading cultural institutions and museums in New York City to bring important works from Deutsche Bank’s collection to a wider audience.
