More than 600 years of Masterpieces
Only a few minutes walk away from Bremen central market square, the
Kunsthalle Bremen building is situated in the Wall gardens. Over the centuries,
a rich and diverse collection has been assembled, containing outstanding
paintings and sculptures as well as precious holdings of graphic art.
The collection of paintings centres on French and German art of the nineteenth
and twentieth century. Special highlights are works by French impressionists
such as Claude Monet, Edouard Manet and Paul Cezanne as well as the many
paintings by Lovis Corinth, Max Liebermann, Max Beckmann, Paula Modersohn-Becker
and media art by John Cage, Nam June Paik or Olafur Eliasson. Another highlight:
an installation by American light artist James Turrell which has been integrated
directly into the building architecture and which is unique of its kind. The
Department of Prints and Drawings is the heart of the collection with more
than 200,000 hand drawings and graphic sheets it is one of the largest in
Europe.
The gallery private owner is to this day the Kunstverein in Bremen (the Bremen Art Association) founded in 1823, making it one of the oldest art associations in Germany.
