The special exhibition on private collecting at art karlsruhe focuses on the work of internationally renowned artist Rolf Behm, who was born in Karlsruhe. Stefanie Patruno, director of the Kunstmuseum Karlsruhe, curates the exhibition, which brings together around twenty works from different phases of Behm’s career: current works are displayed alongside loans from important private and public collections. The Stiftung Kunstforum Berliner Volksbank is pleased to support this homage with loans from the Kunstsammlung der Berliner Volksbank (art collection of the Berliner Volksbank), whose profile is enriched by Rolf Behm’s works as testimonies to his creative period in the West Berlin art scene.
The exhibition is a collaboration between art karlsruhe and the Stiftung Kunstforum Berliner Volksbank and will be on view at art karlsruhe from February 5 to 8, 2026.
