"Captivate!" is curated by German supermodel Claudia Schiffer who is a native of the North Thine-Westphalia district making the Düsseldorf Kunstpalast a good choice. The exhibit takes us through the golden age of fashion and supermodels. Photographs, more photographs, some memorabilia and lots of captions in both German and English. I enjoyed it but would like to have seen more art. If there's more going on here, we couldn't find it. [Review 16376 overall - 181 in Germany - 1883 of 2021.]

The staff are friendly, attentive and super informative! Although I've been to Dusseldorf a few times now, this was my first time visiting the museum to see "PS Ich Liebe Dich" And I was wonderfully impressed with how organized and informative the exhibit was! Can't wait to come back!

Dear tourists, if interested in modern art and architecture, this is your place to go!…read moreGreat old-modern-combination, probably one of the best architectural highlights in town. Art showed is truly modern (21st century, got it?) And rooms are dedicated to a huge range of different artists. This eclectic concept plus room in the basement for bigger expositions make this museum a good example of its kind. Not to talk of the tomas saraceno installation which can be entered (right.) Until end of 2014.

You can always take a break and lounge on the clear plastic orbs. Afterwards, come back to earth and visit the crazy spider exhibit: intricate webs are suspended from sheet glass. A guard is positioned in the room that visitors don't sneak in a can or two of Raid. Another exhibit featured rows of suspended fabric for the visitor to weave in and out of. After winding through, be rewarded with a highly unusual film short. This museum doesn't have as much art as the sister museum, K20, but it's well worth a visit. We were there in January and it wasn't busy- only a few minute wait to go up "In Orbit" The building is beautiful and spacious; we didn't even see the entire museum but would consider returning next time in Düsseldorf. Quite a few of the exhibits are admittedly unusual but it's still and enjoyable way to spend an afternoon doing something a bit out of the ordinary- especially if you've got painting and sculpture overload.

This place is just WOW. Calling it a museum doesn't really do it justice - it's an experience…read more The concept is combining nature and art. There are 12 giant, windowless brick structures spread across a huge forest area, each housing different types of art. You just wander around a crazy German forest, find the houses and shock your eyes with whatever is inside. Three houses in particular really stood out as incredible, but every house is worth a visit. Besides the art inside, there's art bursting in the wild as well, including living areas where artists work and chat with visitors. When we were there, a Joseph Beuys protégé was casually hanging out. AND, there's a gorgeous cafe that goes by the honor system. Like, what?! Another thing to note is the fact that I saw 0 employees. Just... no one. You can touch the art, take pics, whatever without judging eyes. There's also no names, descriptions or anything next to the art. Tickets are 15 EUR full / 7 EUR student, and maps are available at the front. They come in handy because the forest can feel like a maze. I'm usually a fast walker through museums, but I needed 3 hours to take in this magical place. Everything is just beautiful, and I don't know if there's anywhere else quite like it. Go here!

Rather it was one of two modern art galleries on the edge of the old city, that contains, well, a lot of modern art. While the museum does look big, it isn't actually all that big, and I almost walked out without realising that there were a couple of more floors to explore. Mind you, much of these art requires you to spend a lot more time things about it and considering it than the traditional works of art. However, once we got to the third floor we did eventually find something decent to look out. However, all this museum does basically hold is modern art.
