In the organizer's words:
Presentation of the collection
The presentation takes a comprehensive look at the collection of contemporary art, which is presented from different perspectives in twenty rooms. In addition to painting, installations, film and photography are also on display. The exhibition includes important works for the profile of the collection as well as new acquisitions, donations and loans from private collections. It combines monographic and thematic groups of works from Sigmar Polke to Monika Baer, from Tamara Grcic, Shannon Bool, Norbert Schwontkowski to John Bock. The result is a complex parcours of works: outer and inner spaces are to be explored, are mapped, opened up into uncertain interiors, the body is declared a combat zone, faces are transformed into masks, the self plays various roles. Painting presents itself as a tangled fabric and smooth surface, orderly and disorderly superimposition, an alchemical fusion of exoticism and popular culture. Materials engage in extended conversations, photo series collect the world in flexible memories, painting and photography examine the simultaneity of the clear and the indistinct. The museum becomes a "space for imaginative actions" (Albert Oehlen).

Dear visitors,
We will be equipping the upper floor of our building with new energy-saving lights by summer 2025. This measure will ensure the best possible art experience and sustainability.
It is important to us that the collection presentation remains accessible to you during the renovation work. We ask for your understanding that some exhibition rooms will be temporarily closed.
Thank you very much!
Your team at the Kunstmuseum Bonn
