EXHIBITIONS in Düsseldorf

In 2007, KIT – Kunst im Tunnel, a spectacular meeting place for contemporary art, was opened directly under Düsseldorf`s Rhine promenade in a space that lies between the tunnel tubes for car traffic.

The visible entrance to KIT – a pavilion building on the promenade that is glazed towards the Rhine – houses the KIT Café and is one of the most beautiful gastronomic addresses on the Rhine. When the sun is shining, the terrace with a view of the knee of the Rhine is a place to relax and enjoy.

Through the café, visitors reach the underground exhibition area via a large staircase or by elevator. This swings elliptically over a length of 140 meters parallel to the Rhine. The ceiling height and width of the room vary. The works of young artists are exhibited between the concrete walls, which the artistic director of the KIT, Gertrud Peters, invites to exhibit here.

Among other things, acoustic tours are carried out for visually impaired and blind visitors.

The elevator in the KIT Cafe takes you to the underground exhibition area.
