KINDL – Centre for Contemporary Art

The KINDL – Centre for Contemporary Art has been presenting temporary exhibitions of international contemporary art since 2016. It is located in a former brewery building with more than 1,600 square metres of exhibition space, which is used for thematic exhibitions and solo projects. In addition to painting, sculpture, installations, and performance, film and video presentations are another focus of the institution’s programme. The KINDL sees itself as a place for producing and discussing contemporary art and also reacts to recent artistic developments. The exhibition projects are accompanied by an extensive programme of discourse and educational offerings that aims to contribute to the current debate. In February 2020, Kathrin Becker took over as artistic director following the founding director Andreas Fiedler. The focus of her work is on the interaction between social issues and art as a communicative space that enables a critical view of phenomena of a globalised present.
