#SpecialHotelAccommodationEvent Gerhard Hoehme, whose work was exhibited at the Küppersmühle Museum, is a representative artist of informals. Just as the artist said that paintings are inside people, the artist's works also seemed to have entered into our history and life.

#Special Hotel Accommodation Event Among the works exhibited at the Küppersmühle Museum, Karl Fred Dahmen's works were works that showed the artist's stubbornness. From his statement that he does not draw nature, I was able to understand his own world of art to some extent.

#Special Hotel Accommodation Event Looking at the works of Hans Uhlmann and Norbert Kricke, I thought that the artists must have had a lot of worries. The most difficult thing is to keep it simple, but I felt the pain of creation as they conceived the works using simple lines.

#Special Hotel Accommodation Event The abstract paintings and exhibits on display at the Küppersmühle Museum made me curious about how artists get their ideas, starting with their colors. I felt respect for the pain of creation that comes from within oneself, which is what art is.

#SpecialHotelAccommodationEvent Among the exhibits at the Küppersmühle Museum, there is always one sculpture in each exhibition room. It goes so well with the paintings displayed in the exhibition room, and it was nice to see the harmony. #deutschland

#SpecialHotelAccommodationEvent Sometimes, when I look at abstract paintings or modern mists, I think that I can do the same. They look so easy. However, the more skilled the artist is, the more capable he or she is of making difficult work look easy. I am grateful that I was able to see such wonderful works in a great museum!

#SpecialHotelAccommodationEvent As I walked around each space in the Küppersmühle Museum, I couldn't help but exclaim in awe at the works created with such wonderful colors and patterns. I wondered how the artist had done it, and felt my brain being stimulated the whole time I was looking at it. If you're interested in art and modern culture, be sure to stop by.

#Special Hotel Accommodation Event At the Küppersmühle Museum, many abstract and modern art pieces with eye-catching colors caught my eye. The work with gray as the main color reminded me of tree branches on a winter day. If you want to feel the emotion that art gives, be sure to visit.

#SpecialHotelAccommodationEvent Bernd and Hilla Becher's black and white photographs not only document each building, but also seem to recreate the legacy of the brilliant industrial era with a new perspective through artistic attempts. #deutschland

I had the opportunity to appreciate the works of Bernhard Schultz, filled with a variety of colors. The abstract images on the large canvases seemed to add depth to the works. It was an exhibition where you could feel the artist's skill in finding order within the chaos, as if the images were jumping here and there.

#SpecialHotelAccommodationEvent Looking at this artwork, I felt that emptiness can also be expressed with a brush. I could understand the artist's intention to convey the maximum feeling and meaning to the audience within modern art. I recommend an art museum where you can see various modern art pieces.

#Special hotel accommodation event I didn't really have high expectations when I visited, but I was able to see wonderful works of art ranging from abstract paintings to minimalist sculptures. I was able to see works by both famous and unknown artists in one place, and the museum was large and well-lit, so I was able to focus on the works.

#Special Hotel Accommodation Event I think the spiral staircase blends so beautifully into the museum building. The soft curves match the atmosphere of the museum.. This place, where you can feel the various aspects of art through modern art and sculpture, is definitely worth a visit and I recommend it.
