Kunsthaus Bregenz (Art House), Bregenz

The Kunsthaus Bregenz (KUB) is one of Europe’s grandest galleries for contemporary art - 1,880 m² of exhibition space. Commissioned by the State of Vorarlberg and designed by the Swiss architect Peter Zumthor, it was built between 1990 and 1997. Together with the Landestheater, it frames an open square between the old town and the lake. The KUB generally exhibits works of the artists who create specifically for the Kunsthaus. Its own collection comprises two core areas: “Archive Art Architecture” and “Contemporary Austrian Art.” Alongside exhibitions, the Kunsthaus runs an extensive educational program, publishes books, collections of essays, and catalogs, often in close collaboration with exhibiting artists and designers, such as Walter Nikkels or Stefan Sagmeister.
