The “Space for Democracy” is both an exhibition and a workshop space . Here, perspectives from the collection of the Kunstmuseum Bonn are combined with those of the visitors.
To mark the 75th anniversary of the German Basic Law, the Kunstmuseum Bonn is dedicating a room in its collection to the theme of democracy. Works of art from the past 75 years take a look at German history, society and democratic values from different periods. From May to December, regular workshops are held in the Space for Democracy, which culminate in the participatory design of the museum’s DigitalGuide. Accessible via QR codes, the DigitalGuide in the Space for Democracy acts as a platform for a polyphonic art education. Visitors have their say, share and reflect on their associations and impressions. Additional text ideas in the exhibition space encourage writing, reading and conversations.
The list of artists includes Benjamin Bergmann, Joseph Beuys, Andreas Gursky, Paul Klee, Barbara Klemm, Erik van Lieshout, Sigmar Polke, Anys Reimann, Ulrike Rosenbach and Klaus Staeck.
