Europa

Titled “Europe,” Villa Schöningen presents, in a collaborative project with the Stiftung für Kunst und Kultur e.V. Bonn, eight large-scale paintings by Anselm Kiefer and six books designed by the artist, created between 1994 and 2010. The artist is thus realizing one of his rare exhibition presentations in Germany and publicly showcasing a series of works entirely dedicated to the theme of the cow for the first time. Kiefer addresses a subject that has been relevant in European art history for centuries and has engaged artists from Titian to Warhol.

Traces of the Body

Current exhibition

The exhibition Traces of the Body presents the first solo exhibition in Germany of US-American artist Kylie Manning. Her paintings shift between figuration and abstraction. Bodies emerge as traces, dissolving into layered fields of color and light.

At Villa Schöningen, these works enter into dialogue with historical positions such as Jan Brueghel II, Marina Abramović or Anselm Kiefer. Together, they open new perspectives on visibility, memory, and the representation of the human body.
