LUDWIGGALERIE Schloss Oberhausen
In the romantic Kaisergarten and within walking distance to the Gasometer and Centro is the Schloss Oberhausen the place for fine art in Oberhausen. In an ambitious, alternating exhibition program, the Ludwig Gallery located there presents loans from all over the world in the spacious rooms of the classicist palace complex, focusing on three questions.
The Ludwig Collection, one of the largest private collections, which is connected to Oberhausen via the international network of Ludwig Museums, is presented here under unusual and comprehensive themes. With Gods, Heroes and Idols, 1998, The World of Vessels - from Antiquity to Picasso, 2005 or Living Stones - Nature as Artist, 2007, such exhibition projects have been carried out and received much attention from visitors and the press.
The popular gallery on the other hand, it is dedicated to the presentation of illustration, poster art, caricature, comics, photography, etc., which is commonly assigned to the applied area. Important positions such as Gottfried Helnwein and Manfred Deix, but also Wilhelm Busch were shown. Great photographers like Peter Lindbergh or Jim Rakete could and can be optimally staged in the spacious exhibition rooms.
The Landmark Gallery deals with the structural change in the region, the Ruhr area. The former coal and steel region is transforming into a service center. Landmarks such as winding towers, chimneys or steelworks, which once shaped the face of the region, are disappearing. Others, such as the gasometer in Oberhausen or the winding tower of the Zechezollverein in Essen, have become new landmarks. The exhibition projects and outdoor programs accompany this process.
