Just about thirty years ago, with around 500 works, the cornerstone was laid in the main headquarters of the Deutsche Bank Collection's American section in New York. Today, over 3,000 works of art are on view in three of the bank's most important buildings in New York alone. Now, the catalogue Deutsche Bank Art - The Americas offers insight into the collection's wide variety of works shown in branches scattered throughout the entire American continent.

In the early years, the collection primarily reflected the transatlantic artistic dialogue and featured works by Louise Nevelson, Hans (Jean) Arp, Robert Rauschenberg, and Gerhard Richter. Today, in the era of globalization, the focus is on young international positions. In this vein, the new catalogue shows works by "classics" such as Eva Hesse and Richard Prince alongside current photographic works by the Brazilian Vik Muniz and the Japanese Miwa Yanagi, as well as the conceptual drawings of the Uruguayan artist Alejandro Cesarco.
