Since 1976, the Kunsthaus NRW has been presenting a panorama of what North Rhine-Westphalia has produced since the dawn of modernism within the walls of the former imperial abbey of Kornelimünster. The historic building is nestled peacefully in the Inde Valley, lending a special depth to the changing exhibitions. Works spanning more than a century of artistic development meet here with the quiet walls of the former monastery. The collection showcases works that reveal the evolution of artistic expression while also offering a glimpse into current trends. As you walk through the rooms, you’re accompanied by a quiet dialogue between past and present—a dialogue that makes this place so unique.
