KULTUR. KONTAKT. KONKRET

Carl-Jürgen Schroth's exhibition of more than one hundred international and German contemporary works will focus on European and North American concrete, constructivist, minimalist and conceptual works from 1950 to the present day.

Established in the 1980s the collection contains 700 works by more than 120 artists, and is made up of donations and artist deposits. The Stiftung Konzeptuelle Kunst, a foundation set up in 2014 to manage the collection also runs a space dedicated to international contemporary art at the Wilhelm Morgner Museum in Soest, called RAUM SCHROTH. Its content is closely linked to the profile of the Schroth Collection. In addition to thematic exhibitions from the collection or related to current art themes, solo exhibitions are regularly organised, often with site-specific concepts and installations.

Carl-Jürgen Schroth and the Vass Collection have developed a joint exchange programme. This includes the exhibition opening in January. Afterwards, from 26 March to 11 June 2023, works from the Vass Collection will be on display at RAUM SCHROTH in Soest, Germany.
