Kunsthalle Messmer

The Kunsthalle Messmer is a museum in Riegel am Kaiserstuhl in the rooms of the former Riegeler Brauerei [de]. Art of the 20th and 21st centuries is shown in temporary exhibitions on around 900 m2 of exhibition space. The museum includes an 850 m2 sculpture garden with plastics by contemporary artists Gerald Baschek, Hellmut Bruch [de], Gerhard Frömel [de], Friedrich Geiler, Bernhard Licini, Rüdiger Seidt [de], Michel Jouët and Michael Schwarze [de].

Foundation

[edit]

In 2005, the former entrepreneur and art collector Jürgen A. Messmer founded the messmer foundation as a dedication to his daughter Petra, who died of cancer in 2003.[1] The foundation is the institution behind the museum, which opened in June 2009. Every year, up to three exhibitions of classical modern art and contemporary art are presented. Exhibits from its own collection as well as loans from international private and museum collections are on display. In 1978 Messmer succeeded in acquiring large parts of the estate of the Swiss artist André Evard. Throughout his life he painted figuratively and abstractly and was regarded as a pioneering painter of Swiss Modernism.

Through the artist, the entrepreneur found concrete-constructive art, which today forms the focus of his collection. The first exhibition of the kunsthalle messmer was a homage to Evard and showed only his works. In addition, the International André Evard Art Award, founded by Messmer, was named to honor the artist.
