“Art for All” – Our Self Conception
In 1909, our founding director, Fritz Wichert, consciously positioned the Kunsthalle Mannheim as a space for encounter. He created a modern “art museum for all” – regardless of age or background. We are still following this motto today. We seek to appeal to all of you: families, children, and young people, professionals, senior citizens, and tourists – experts and lay people, art enthusiasts and art skeptics. So it makes sense that the themes of our guided tours, debates, lectures, workshops, art discussions, and film evenings are similarly wide-ranging. In lively exchanges between visitors and curators, artists, and leading experts in art and beyond, the Kunsthalle remains a place for open conversation and cultural recreation, remaining loyal to Wichert’s founding vision.
