It’s birthday time for the Kunstmuseum Gelsenkirchen! On the 40th anniversary of our museum building we are presenting our treasures in a new collection exhibition. Look what we have – all this is there for you to discover in Gelsenkirchen starting on 15 September 2024. From the inception of modernism in the early twentieth century to the European avantgarde of the post-war years, from our outstanding holdings of Kinetic art to the international movements of the present. Newly designed galleries now offer space to display stimulating juxtapositions of artistic highlights, freshly restored rediscoveries from our storage and notable works on loan.
The museum visit is rounded off by numerous new features accompanying the collection presentation such as visitor-friendly spots to relax and linger, as well as a variety of digital attractions.
