In the former Moeller fabric pavilion at Hahnenstr. 8, the Photoszene is creating a temporary home for photography in the heart of the city center.
As the central location of the photo festival, the photo pavilion offers a special program of lectures, guided tours and events for four weeks.
All information about the festival can be found there.

Over Seas is a collaborative project between artist Elina Brotherus and conductor Eivind Aadland, staged by Kilden and Kunstsilo. Aadland, an avid art collector, and Brotherus, with her deep interest in classical music, have together developed Over Seas, a project where their artistic expressions meet.

Van der Grinten Galerie is delighted to announce a new collaboration with Finnish artist Elina Brotherus.
Her first solo exhibition with us will take place from April 4 to June 28, 2025.

New-York artist Ruth Marten is known for the delicacy of her gouache, watercolor and ink drawings based on antique photographs and old engravings. Now she once again takes us into her dreamlike world full of humor, poetry, eroticism and subversion. For this new series, she used original heliogravures from 1923 showing naked dancers in pure Art Deco poses.
“All about Eve” is an affectionate, free-spirited tribute to the bubbling female imagination.

The last exhibition of 2024 will open during ART COLOGNE Week.
A representative ensemble of works on paper by Sigmar Polke and an accrochage with artists of the gallery await visitors.

Six renowned curators, the director of the Kunsthalle Bremen and the Pauli Prize donors have each independently nominated an artist whose works will be on view at the Kunsthalle Bremen in an exhibition from 24 August to 13 October 2024: Katrin Brause (*1972), Benjamin Hirte (*1980), Christof John (*1984), Annika Kahrs (*1984), Marcus Neufanger (*1964), Cemile Sahin (*1990), Gabriele Stötzer (*1953) Jenna Sutela (*1983) are the 2024 finalists.

Pixerina Witcherina, curated by Julie Heffernan brings together the work of Joan Bankemper, Ruth Marten and Jenny Lynn McNutt in a conversation about slant authority, languages of the absurd, and the abundant pleasures of too muchness.

Elger Esser’s latest project is dedicated to a highlight of French medieval architecture, the Benedictine abbey of Mont-Saint-Michel in the Normandy mud flats. Commissioned by the French government to celebrate the abbey’s millennium in 2023, he photographed Mont-Saint-Michel and its surrounding landscape and turned it into breathtaking images to be exhibited in the abbey.
