What is the world and what is it made of? Is there something that connects everything? The exhibition shows the four elements – fire, water, earth and air – and adds a fifth element. Around 70 artworks take on this theme and invite us to connect nature, art and science.
We will walk through the rooms together in a peaceful atmosphere and learn about the artists’ unusual materials and experimental techniques. We look forward to your stories and impressions and the journey together!

    The soccer fan club, the family, the political collective – people strive to belong. Since the invention of photography, the medium has not only captured belonging, but can also fuel or question it. The exhibition at the Kunstpalast sheds light on the multifaceted relationship and brings together applied and artistic positions. Discover the different, funny and interesting works during this tour!

    What is the world – and what is it made of? Is there something that connects everything? Maybe you already know the four elements: fire, water, earth, and air. They inspired many artists. Be surprised by their different approaches. Do you also know the fifth element? Together we will investigate and listen to what the art works may tell us. Afterwards you can also experiment on your own.

    An afternoon full of inspiring encounters. This time, we will take a joint look at the history of the Kunstpalast. When were the buildings in the Ehrenhof constructed? How did the diversity of the collection come about? In this special series, the focus is not only on art-historical background, but also on shared exchange and personal impressions. In dialogue with the group, selected artworks and artists will be presented.

    After the guided tour, we invite you to continue the conversations in a relaxed atmosphere over coffee and cake.
    The price includes one slice of cake and a non-alcoholic beverage 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.

    Typical motifs in still lifes are flowers, fruits, and vessels, but also everyday objects that are artfully arranged and often have symbolic meaning. The appeal of these works of art lies above all in slowing down the gaze and rediscovering the beauty of everyday life. What do the pictures tell us about their time, about human values, and about transience? In the Kunstpalast collection, we discover works from different centuries.

    In addition to the art-historical background, this special series focuses on mutual exchange and personal impressions. Sometimes all it takes is a picture to start a conversation or bring back memories. Our experienced art educators guide you through the collection exhibition and introduce individual works of art or artists in dialogue with the group.

    After the tour, we cordially invite you to continue the conversation in a cozy atmosphere over coffee and cake.
