Under the motto “ArtWorks,” Deutsche Bank has offered employees, customers, and the general public access to contemporary art for 35 years. The heart of our art activities is the Deutsche Bank Collection, which today is one of the world’s most renowned corporate collections and whose works are on view in the bank’s office buildings as well as in international exhibitions. The “Artist of the Year” award is directed at artists who are on the verge of their international breakthrough. In the sphere of culture, we support the Berliner Philharmoniker, Musikgymnasium Schloss Belvedere in Weimar, and the English Theatre in Frankfurt, among others. Deutsche Bank is also the National Sponsor of the German Sports Aid Foundation and thus helps talented young athletes reconcile competitive sports with their careers. With the German Equestrian Sport Academy, outstanding dressage talents are promoted.
