26th ANNIVERSARY NORDART


I am returning to Nordart in 2025 as my installation ‘A Sense of Place’, which was exhibited in NordArt 2024, was awarded the first of three Public Choice Awards.


Büdelsdorf, Germany. 06/06/2025 - 05/10/2025

The Kunstwerk Carlshütte, which hosts NordArt, presents a unique atmosphere which allows intimate contact with hundreds of artworks from all over the world which collaborate to form a collective narrative that maps the current dreams and concerns of humanity and, remarkably, leads the works of art into conversation with each other and the visitors.


Wolfgang Gramm, the Principal Curator of NordArt sums it up: “Art seeks answers to everything that rouses and touches people, while people seek answers in art.“


The hosts and Principal Sponsors at the Kunstwerk Carlshütte are the entrepreneurial couple Hans-Julius and Johanna Ahlmann.


The 26th NordArt is open to the public from 6 June to 5 October 2025 on the grounds of the historic iron foundry Carlshütte.
