Descripción: «The Hamburg Kunsthalle is one of the few museums in which visitors can view art from the Middle Ages through to the present day. Founded as a civic rather than a courtly establishment, the Kunsthalle still considers itself primarily an institution for the citizens and guests of the city of Hamburg.
Our aim is to introduce our visitors to old and new forms of art - for the education of the mind and the creation of aesthetic awareness - and for pleasure!
We want our museum to keep moving, therefore we occasionally change the collections on show - presenting the works in a new light, adding new accents through acquisitions and loans and introducing unfamiliar art worlds to the museum through exhibitions. We bring old works out of the store and put newer ones up for debate, creating a centre for the mind and the spirit through discussions, lectures by prominent artists, talks and openings.»
