ARoS er et af nordens mest besøgte museer og har en vision om at blive blandt de tyve vigtigste kunstmuseer i verden. Med sine fem gallerier og en hel etage dedikeret til installationskunst præsenterer museet hvert år markante nationale og internationale kunstnere samt udstillinger med kunst fra ARoS’ egen samling. Kæmpeskulpturen Boy, tekstilinstallationen Valkyrie Rán og ikke mindst regnbuen på toppen, Your rainbow panorama, er nok museets mest kendte og iøjnefaldende værker. Værkerne er hvert år med til at trække gæster fra hele verden til ARoS og Aarhus, og i fremtiden vil man også komme for at opleve udvidelsen The Next Level med den enorme kunstinstallation The Dome af amerikanske James Turrell, når den åbner i 2025.
Men ARoS er meget mere end kunsten. Det er et socialt samlingssted midt i byen og et univers for alle, der har lyst til at udvide horisonten, komme tættere på hinanden og danne fællesskaber. Museet tager aktiv del i samfundet og er debatskabende via udstillingerne, talks og andre aktiviteter, men også ved at være synlig i medierne og deltage i paneldebatter, samtalesaloner og lignende.
The Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek was founded in 1888, by the renowned brewing magnate Carl Jacobsen, and new wings were added in 1906 and 1996.
The Collection of Antiquities includes world-class holdings of art and artefacts and presents 6000 years of art and history: the Ancient Near East, Ancient Egypt, Greece, Greek and Etruscan Italy and, finally, Rome.
The museum also owns an important collection of paintings by the French Impressionists, with a large gallery containing works by Monet, Sisley, Degas, van Gogh, Cézanne and many others. The Glyptotek has one of the four existing complete sets of Degas’s bronze sculptures, and 45 works of art by Paul Gauguin.
The Danish collection of 19th century art features works by such painters as Eckersberg, Købke and Lundbye - three of the epoch's most important artists. In addition the Glyptotek houses the country's largest collection of Golden Age sculpture. But the Danish Collection also includes modern art from the first half of the 20th century, among which are a number of sculptures by Kai Nielsen and paintings by Philipsen, Weie and Giersing.
