The city as an exhibition
Why Münster remains a major artistic destination
Since 1977, the Skulptur Projekte have transformed Münster into a global laboratory of art in public space every ten years. Between two editions, the stage remains dense: the LWL-Museum and the Westfälischer Kunstverein structure the Altstadt, the Kunsthalle runs the Kreativkai, the Kunstakademie experiments at the Wewerka Pavilion and the shopping malls support artists and collectors.
This guide helps connect these scales. Fans who wish to continue their discovery at home can consult our original paintings available. Each project benefits from pre-acquisition advice, suitable packaging and carefully organized international delivery.
