Good Friends are
good for Art
Civic commitment is a powerful force. Without it there would be no Berlinische Galerie. In 1975 some art lovers in West Berlin set up an association to collect and exhibit modern and contemporary art from the city – and the Berlinische Galerie was born. The association continued to own and manage the collection for over 20 years. In 1995 it became the Förderverein we know today, which has charitable status and is closely in tune with all the goals the museum sets out to achieve. By raising funds it makes a valuable contribution towards important purchases, new exhibitions and education projects. If you are passionate about Berlin’s art and culture and would like to know more about the Berlinische Galerie, this
is the right place for you.
