Kunstpalast Düsseldorf to experience a revival by 2025
The Kunstpalast Düsseldorf is gearing up for an extraordinary season, with a diverse range of exhibitions and experiences planned from September 2025 to May 2026.
Renowned scent expert and author, Robert Müller-Grünow, will create unique olfactory experiences in 49 rooms of the collection. This innovative approach is set to redefine the way visitors engage with art.
From 18 September to 11 January, the works of Düsseldorf conceptual artist Hans-Peter Feldmann will be on display. Interestingly, Feldmann himself participated in the planning of the exhibition before his passing.
Another highlight is an exhibition of never-before-seen images by Gerhard Richter, a significant part of the Kunstpalast Düsseldorf's collection. The "Hidden Treasures" exhibition, featuring small early works by Gerhard Richter from Rhine region private collections, has been extended due to high demand.
Felix Kraemer, the General Director of the Kunstpalast Düsseldorf, aims to make high-ranking culture accessible and enjoyable for everyone. Online ticket purchase is recommended to avoid long wait times, but not required. You can visit www.kunstpalast.de for more information.
The socially critical works from the Peters-Messer collection are also part of the Kunstpalast Düsseldorf's programme.
In March, the museum will feature floral arrangements inspired by the collection. From 20 to 30 March, visitors can enjoy this sensory experience.
The parallel exhibition at the NRW-Forum is "Superheroes", showcasing until May. "Sex Now" is announced for the autumn (5 September 2025 to January 2026) at the NRW-Forum, featuring artists, designers, and activists of all genders.
The exhibition "Artists! From Monjé to Münter" will run from 25 September 2025 to 1 February 2026, celebrating 30 female artists from the 19th century who were denied entry to the prestigious Düsseldorf Academy due to gender restrictions. The exhibition "Women Artists! From Monjé to Münter" will run concurrently, featuring over 100 exhibits discovered through research on around 500 overlooked female artists such as Mathilde Dietrichson and Elisabeth Jerichau-Baumann.
Kathrin Dubois, director of the Gemäldegalerie, aims to bring more recognition to these female artists.
The "Hidden Treasures" exhibition of Gerhard Richter's works has been extended due to high demand, with early entry available on specific dates.
Lastly, the exhibition "MAMA" explores the mother figure between the Virgin Mary and Chancellor Merkel, with 120 works from various periods of art history.
The Kunstpalast Düsseldorf attracted half a million visitors in 2024, a record number. Tony Cragg's sculptures are touchable in the museum, adding an interactive element to the visitor experience. Visitors can enter the museum as early as 10 am on Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays from 28 December to 2 February, and on other specified dates.
With such an exciting lineup, the Kunstpalast Düsseldorf promises an enriching cultural experience for all.
