Details:
NordArt is one of the largest exhibitions of contemporary art in Europe, which is redesigned every year and presents more than 200 selected artists from all over the world – internationally renowned artists as well like newcomers. Each work stands for itself and at the same time in dialogue with the others. In synergy with the impressive backdrop of the Carlshütte, a unique atmosphere is created that invites you on a journey of discovery.
NordArt thrives on the different perspectives of individual cultures, but also makes it clear that East and West, South and North have many common ideas. In order to deepen the insights, NordArt dedicates its own pavilion to a different country every year and cooperates with embassies, cultural institutions and curators of the respective countries. Individual artists are also specifically appointed and special projects are realized as part of NordArt.
The chief curator of NordArt is Wolfgang Gramm. The senior curator is Inga Aru.
