About the Kunstkommission Düsseldorf
Public art or art in architecture shapes communities, makes for distinctive spaces, encourages neighborhood identification, and is fundamental to contemporary urban culture and urban growth.
Due of this, the Kunstkommission Düsseldorf was established in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, in 2018. Since that time, the local political bodies have received advice from a panel of experts made up of artists, art historians, architects, urban planners, and politicians on potential projects, artistic formats, building project locations, the type of selection process, the artists to be invited, and ultimately the artistic ideas to be realized. The goal is to make a variety of aesthetic expressions possible in public areas, frequently in association with brand-new construction projects. Additionally, the Kunstkommission creates original projects and forms to hone the perception of art in public spaces and to raise the profile of the city.The members of the Kunstkommission, which is supported in its work by an own agency, are elected every three years.
