New CLOSE UP on Art & Politics in the Contemporary Art Collection

You are currently viewing New CLOSE UP on Art & Politics in the Contemporary Art Collection

How do artists process political events from the immediate present? CLOSE UP focuses on three works by Bettina Semmer, Armin Boehm, and Dierk Schmidt from the Städel Museum’s Contemporary Art Collection. Visitors are invited to conduct their own research in front of the original works. CLOSE UP relies on the interplay of original artworks, wall texts, and a digital application.

The digital application can be accessed from home:
