Experiments and explorations in art and sensory perception: Under the auspices of Gregor Jansen, the decidedly individual building on Grabbeplatz has established itself as a pool of international movements and local trends, new talent and big names. Opening its doors in 1967, Kunsthalle Düsseldorf instantly became a pillar of the art community and a temple of possibilities, a place free of bias, a nucleus of inspiration, hotbed of discussion, aesthetic pioneer and occasionally agent provocateur.
In summer 2010, the Kunsthalle hosted a long-awaited retrospective of one of Düsseldorf’s leading conceptual artists, Hans-Peter Feldmann. In spring 2011, another star of the 60s and 70s, Ferdinand Kriwet, took centre-stage with a comprehensive multimedia exhibition of works, a worldwide first in depth and scope. In 2013, Tomma Abts from London, Chris Martin from Brooklyn, Yüksel Arslan from Paris and Michael Kunze from Berlin were all hot topics of discussion, as well as the popular exhibition Living with Pop. A Reproduction of Capitalist Realism. Since 1989, Kunsthalle Düsseldorf has also regularly exhibited the work of Karl Schmidt-Rottluff scholarship holders.
In 2012/13, the exhibition format Seitenlichtsaal was introduced as a flexible project space to present
