The private art collection of the Hilti Art Foundation includes over 200 top-quality paintings, sculptures, and photographs from Classic Modernism to the present day.

It includes works by Fontana, Klein, Manzoni, Uecker, Mack, and Colombo, as well as Albers, Bill, Fruhtrunk, von Graevenitz, Richter, and Sonnier. There are major work complexes by Gottfried Honegger, Gotthard Graubner, Imi Knoebel, and Sean Scully.
