KUNSTWERKHALLE3: A factory hall becomes an art experience in Duisburg
In the craftsman's yard Wanheimerort, Hall 3 transforms into an extraordinary exhibition space: KUNSTWERKHALLE3 shows a curated exhibition featuring 16 artists, along with readings and concerts. The exhibition takes place in a former factory hall of the Kemper Drahtwerke, which has been revitalized since 2022 and now re-emerges as a place for cultural education, work contemplation, and aesthetic experience.

Industrial charm meets visual language
On approximately 1000 square meters, a dense atmosphere of exhibition unfolds. Painting, sculpture, and spatial installation receive generous presentation areas in the hall; the industrial architecture, measuring 85 meters in length and 12 meters in width, places each work in a striking dialogue with light, material, and space. This spatial openness sharpens the focus on artistic positions that engage with the present, memory, and social responsibility.

Hans-Jürgen Vorsatz as a curatorial force
The Duisburg sculptor Hans-Jürgen Vorsatz shapes the project as initiator and curator. The city portal Duisburg describes him as an artist whose work is characterized by large sculptures made of stone and metal; at the same time, he connects visual art with music and literature in KUNSTWERKHALLE3. Particularly strong is the thematic focus around May 8, the day of the end of the war, as well as works with a socially critical and deeply human focus.

Works, themes, and program
The exhibition gathers works from 16 artists, including a piece by Chinmayo in memoriam. The program includes an opening, concert evenings, and a performance featuring double bass, including a rare octobass instrument as an acoustic event. Thus, a multifaceted art experience unfolds for visitors between exhibition, concert, and reading.
