K21 Sammlung. Internationale Gegenwartskunst
In the organizer's words:
The international contemporary art of the Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen is housed in K21, the former Ständehaus on Düsseldorf's Kaiserteich. While changing exhibitions can be seen in the basement and on the Bel Etage, the rooms around the arcades on the 2nd and 3rd floors house the collection of contemporary art from the state of North Rhine-Westphalia. Photographs by Thomas Struth, sculptures by Thomas Schütte and video works by Robert Wilson, among others, have long been part of the Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen's holdings. The installation "Das Deutschlandgerät" by Reinhard Mucha, which has filled the plenary hall of the Ständehaus since the museum was founded in 2002, is also exhibited here. As the powerhouse of the museum, it shows how contemporary artists and museums are constantly redefining their historical position.
