Kölnischer Kunstverein

The Kölnischer Kunstverein is an art museum in Cologne, North Rhine-Westphalia state, Germany. It is named after the historical art society of the same name.

The Kölnischer Kunstverein was a "Kunstverein" established in Cologne in 1839 and is one of the oldest institutions for contemporary art in Germany.[1]

In the 20th century, the Kölnischer Kunstverein held exhibitions of works by Hans Arp in 1919, Paul Klee in 1932, and Fluxus artists in the 1970s.[2]

The building that housed the Kölnischer Kunstverein and its exhibitions was demolished in 2002. The Kölnischer Kunstverein now generally refers to that building and the history of the society.[1]
