Kunsthalle Baden
Baden-Baden, Germany
Since its opening in 1909, and especially since the 1960s, the Staatliche Kunsthalle Baden-Baden has been committed to dealing with international contemporary art.
Located in the midst of the idyllic park landscape of the Lichtentaler Allee in the spa town of Baden-Baden, the listed building of the Staatliche Kunsthalle has been connected to the adjacent Museum Frieder Burda by a bridge since 2004, and in public/private partnership which combines the diversity of two exhibition houses with different orders.
Over the years the museum has established itself as an important source of inspiration for the presentation of internationally important contemporary art in the city, the region and beyond.
All of the exhibitions to date have been documented in more than 360 publications and exhibition catalogs.
