Münchner Künstlerhaus

Loc. in: Munich, Germany

The Münchner Künstlerhaus was conceived as a meeting place for artists and society alike and is still living proof of the style and society model of its time of origin. Not only the historical building itself but also its culture of festivities has become a vital part of the history of Munich.

 

 In 1991, Peter Grassinger and his wife Maja took over management and re-opened after a thorough renovation in 1998. Public perception of art and society have changed dramatically after more than a century. Hence the development and management of the House of Artists changed as well and a different relationship between artist and society evolved. Bearing the banner - "Nobis et Amicis" ("for ourselves and our friends") on the outside of the building in mind - the House of Artists has broadened its approach and appeal. In the founding years access was restricted to the elite of artists and patrons. Today its wide variety of congresses, festivities, and exhibitions attracts citizens of Munich from all walks of life to mingle with politicians, scientists and artists. At present the management tailors a rich and colourful cultural programme in cooperation with over 50 cultural associations and institutions, resulting in a multitude of different themes. To ensure the special concept of the House of Artists in the future, its operation was changed into the House of Artists Foundation (Münchner Künstlerhaus Stiftung) in 2001. In cooperation with the House of Artists Association the foundation fulfils its multiple duties without public subsidies. Membership fees and income from renting out rooms for private festivities constitute the financial backbone of the House of Artists. The premises are being used by public and private entities, for cultural events as well as congresses, receptions and smaller parties.
