Künstlerhaus Stuttgart

Künstlerhaus Stuttgart was founded by artists in 1978 as a vital space for rethinking the means by which art is produced. As a unique Stuttgart institution that houses exhibition galleries, workshop facilities, and artist studios, this foundational commitment to advancing the interrelated working conditions, creative interests, and lived relations that constitute artistic production remains central to the mission and operative structure of the Künstlerhaus Stuttgart today. The distinct identity of the institution is continually formed by this insistence that artists’ work-life conditions be given equal consideration with experimental approaches to the exhibition, distribution, and reception of art. By giving space for these social and political imperatives alongside its consistent support of cutting-edge practices and debates in the art field, the Künstlerhaus Stuttgart has developed into a site of local, regional, and international significance for artists, art communities, and diverse constituencies.
