Düsseldorf as art center in the postwar period
In this special series, the focus lies not only on art-historical contexts, but also on shared exchange and personal impressions. Sometimes all it takes is a single artwork to spark a conversation or awaken memories.

This time, our topic is Düsseldorf as a hotspot of the art scene from the 1950s to the 1970s. The event explores the gallery scene and its key figures. We will discuss the influence of the ZERO artists as well as the experimental, sometimes quirky performances and exhibition actions of the era, in which art, everyday life, and provocation became closely intertwined. Special attention is given to the legendary underground club Creamcheese, once a central meeting place for an open and innovative art and cultural scene.

After the tour, we warmly invite you to continue the conversations in a relaxed atmosphere over coffee and cake.

The price includes a slice of cake and a coffee, cappuccino, tea or soft drink of your choice.

This format is aimed at people who would like to enrich their everyday lives through new encounters and who are interested in art. No prior knowledge is required.
