VISITE
From Gerhard Richter to Rebecca Horn
Works from the Contemporary Art Collection of the Federal Republic of Germany
11 April - prolonged: 31 August 2008

An exhibition of the Art and Exhibition Hall of the Federal Republic of Germany in cooperation with the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and Media (BKM).
The exhibition of the contemporary art collection of the Federal Republic of Germany was first shown in Brussels in February 2007 to mark the German EU Council Presidency. The Art and Exhibition Hall of the Federal Republic of Germany is delighted to be able to present the exhibition in an extended form in Bonn. Visite is an exhibition of contemporary art focusing on three main lines of enquiry: Existence – Space – History. With some sixty outstanding works by, among others, Rebecca Horn, Katharina Sieverding, Gerhard Richter and Wolfgang Tillmans, it presents artistic reflections on the philosophical conditions of human existence. The works cover a wide range of media – from drawing, painting and sculpture to photography and video. The contemporary art collection of the Federal Republic of Germany was launched in 1970 and allows the German government to document important milestones in contemporary art.
