Understanding the Düsseldorf art scene
A city of museums, galleries and collectors
The influence of the Kunstakademie, from Joseph Beuys to the ZERO group then to the Düsseldorf School of Photography, explains the artistic density of the city. The K20 and K21 collections, the Kunstpalast and the NRW-Forum interact with an active market, visible all year round in galleries and every spring at Art Düsseldorf. This directory brings together active addresses, official links and places to see or buy works.
Start with Hofgarten and Altstadt
K20, Kunsthalle, Kunstverein and the Akademie-Galerie form a dense core. Continue on foot towards Carlstadt and its longstanding galleries.
Connect Carlstadt to Flingern
Hohe Strasse, Ackerstrasse and Birkenstrasse concentrate commercial galleries, from established modern art to emerging contemporary programs.
Set Aside Time for the Hafen and Outlying Areas
Bilk, MedienHafen, Oberkassel and Kaiserswerth host foundations, studios and venues open by appointment. Always check opening hours before travelling.
