Schirn Kunsthalle Frankfurt

The Schirn Kunsthalle Frankfurt is one of most impor­tant exhi­bi­tion venues in Europe. Since opening in 1986, it has presented more than 250 exhi­bi­tions on around 2,000 m² of floor space and can boast a total of more than 9.5 million visi­tors. The SChirn focuses on art-histor­ical and historico-cultural themes, discourses, and trends from a contem­po­rary perspec­tive. Its range of offers is multi­fac­eted, inter­na­tional, and progres­sive; it attempts to open up new points of view and to break open tradi­tional patterns of recep­tion. The exhi­bi­tions are devoted in equal measure to contem­po­rary stances in art and art of the modern era.
