The following curators are responsible for the selection of the artists and works, which are shown at KUNST.IST! The individual curators are in their decision to include an artist or a work at KUNST.IST! independent and free of any influence. Not every curator named here is responsible for the selection of all works, but only for a part of the works. This depends on when his/her activity as a curator has started, or whether he/she was present or involved in the decision. The curator team is always occupied in odd numbers in order to make a majority decision.
We are happy to answer detailed questions.
