Mission Statement

The Kunstpalast is the art museum of the city of Düsseldorf.

A lively house of art offering a sense of identification to all Düsseldorf citizens, the museum seeks to inspire and encourage participation. Starting point of our work is the city’s status as a centre of art, as well as the museum’s broad scope spanning many epochs and genres, which manifests itself in the diversity of the collection and the integration of the NRW Forum and the Robert Schumann Saal.

We present art to a broad, international public and pursue a broad concept of art that goes beyond the conventional art canon.
In doing so, we respond to contemporary topical issues and provide impulses that enable new perspectives.
