The Foundation for Art and Culture in Bonn (Stiftung für Kunst und Kultur Bonn) is a not-for-profit organization, which was founded in 1986 as a private initiative. The Foundation has set its goal on supporting art and culture as essential pillars of our civil society. The Foundation wishes to initiate conversations und understands itself—following artist Joseph Beuys—as a “contributor to the whole.”
Chairman is Walter Smerling. Key areas of the Foundation include conceiving and realizing exhibitions; directing the MKM Museum Küppersmühle; organizing discussions at the interface of art, politics and business; and the presentation of art in the public realm. Since its inception, the Foundation has realized over 300 exhibitions and other art projects at home and abroad.
