Staatliche Kunsthalle Baden-Baden
The Staatliche Kunsthalle Baden-Baden is an exhibition venue for international modern and contemporary art. The Neo-Classicist building, which houses no collection of its own, provides an ideal platform for staging dialogues between the artwork and its surrounding space; the versatility of this forum facilitates that dialogue in all the media (painting, sculpture, photography, video and installation).
The Kunsthalle owes its reputation in the international art context not just to its unusually attractive rooms, but also to its consistent promotion of contemporary art and its close cooperation with artists and international partners, a collaboration to which all the museum’s directors have felt duty bound since the state of Baden-Württemberg took over the institution in 1952.
In addition to extensive monographic shows and group exhibitions of young art from at home and abroad, the exhibition programme since 1998 has also included studio exhibitions, which represent a forum for young artists.
