The Frankfurter Kunstverein is an art centre. Its main goal is to present the viewer with coherently researched exhibitions that are embedded in the present. Our work is mainly based in the development and production of new art works and projects. Hence our aim is to encourage a critical discussion around “contemporary art production” and we stress the importance of regularly organizing artist talks, debates and lectures in order to create an access point to art and its reasons.

The Frankfurter Kunstverein has an eminent social dimension: we want to promote curiosity towards the future and to place a new confidence in contemporary art production. Our commitment is to elucidate the importance of the role of artists in our society: as producers, thinkers, mediators and the ones who still dare to experiment.

Guided tours, lectures, film programmes, symposia, conferences and member trips are some of the means by which Frankfurter Kunstverein helps members and visitors to come to grips with this exciting new terrain and to open up critical dialogue with current exhibitions and contemporary art
