"The former seat of the Parliament of North Rhine–Westphalia, this grand neo-Renaissance building is known for its cutting-edge art exhibitions. Originally designed by architect Julius Raschdorff and renovated by Munich firm Kiessler & Partner (who added the eye-catching domed roof composed of almost 2,000 sheets of glass), the venue is part of the greater Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen collection, but focuses specifically on works created after the 1980s. As a result, visitors can expect to find large-scale film and video installations, site-specific works, and shows by contemporary heavy hitters like Bill Viola, Nam June Paik, and Andreas Gursky, shown on a rotating basis across the building’s four connected wings. If you visit the museum with kids, be sure to check out the fun, interactive In Orbit installation by Tomás Saraceno."

Stunning building and setting. You are tied to the installations and unfortunately this in place when we visited didn’t fit our brief. We only just missed the ‘climbing on the roof’ which was incredibly well received. There is some lovely works but not all matched the beautiful setting. It also wasn’t very child friendly. We travelled here using the Düsseldorf card (purchased from the tourist office - which includes lots of attractions and all travel and is HIGHLY recommended).

Nice museum. Nice environment. Share my favorite painting here, the style is very special. I asked chatgpt to repaint the Battle of Alexander at Issus (the fourth picture) in this style (the first three pictures). In terms of real creation, AI is still far behind humans.

This place is incredible not only because of that fun part where you go to the upper floor and walk on a metal metal mesh, but because of all the works of art you'll find here. This museum is super big, make sure to come with enough time to see everything.

The space in and around K21 is stunning. Each window that looks onto the atrium frames a different vista of layers of architectural elements. Different styles of stairways make it fun just to go up and down and around. Classic architectural elements are reinterpreted with modern building materials. The place invites you to dwell upon the traditions that modern art stems out of as well as the breakaways and breakthroughs and the rebels of our own times.

Excellent Düsseldorf art gallery in a brilliant building. We went primarily to see the Jenny Holzer exhibition which was outstanding. But there was lots of other very interesting work there. Plus of course the public wandering around on nets 4 stories up!!

I am happy to help you write a review for a modern gallery. Here's a sample review: The modern gallery I visited was a breathtaking experience. As soon as I walked in, I was struck by the stunning works of art on display. The gallery had a great collection of contemporary art, featuring some of the most talented artists of our time. The space itself was clean, well-lit, and spacious, which allowed me to fully appreciate each piece of art. The gallery staff were friendly and knowledgeable, and they were happy to answer any questions I had about the art on display. The variety of artworks on display was impressive, ranging from paintings to sculptures and installations. Each piece of art had its own unique style and message, which made for a thought-provoking and inspiring experience. What I appreciated most about this modern gallery was its commitment to showcasing diverse and innovative artists. The gallery was not afraid to take risks with its art choices, and it paid off in creating a dynamic and engaging exhibition. Overall, I highly recommend this modern gallery to anyone looking for a unique and memorable art experience. The quality and diversity of the art on display, combined with the welcoming and knowledgeable staff, made for a truly exceptional visit.

Amazing building with impressive design. Happy to see Issac Julien collection. Roof top trip was fun and not too crowded on a weekend! Would definitely visit again for other exhibitions in future!

With the picture of the balls, this museum throws high expectations. However, it's not full with pieces of modern art that's of the same stature as the balls. The artwork that is there, is good though. The building is big. I had a nice time there, but I would have liked it if the visit lasted longer. Would go there a second time though. Location is great too!
