The Shop: Books, Art and Pretty Things

The artworks, the atmosphere, the joy, the interesting and the special can also be taken home – on paper. In close cooperation with the respective artist, we produce elaborate catalogs and artist books, which are as individual in form and content as the corresponding artworks themselves. You can find more details about the layout, authors and texts below under the individual title.

In keeping with the Municipal Art Collection, which specializes in multiplied art, some artists also produce graphics or multiples so that we can offer them to visitors to Kunstpalais. So far, one of a kind 3D-printed sculptures by Florian Meisenberg, a cap with LED lights by Alona Rodeh, and prints by Grace Weaver and Vivian Greven are available here.
People who like art also like to surround themselves with beautiful things, as we know from our own experience. That’s exactly the reason why Kunstpalais has a curator-curated museum store with jazzy, eye-catching, unconventional things that we’d like to own ourselves or would love to give as gifts: Jewelry made from laser-cut Plexiglas or crocheted yarn from Japan, England, and Australia, fine leather cooking aprons from the Netherlands, plant planets and gem galaxies from Denmark, special pieces of tableware and vases from ancient times – and whatever else we are able to find.
Our books, prints, and multiples can also be ordered online; everything else can be found exclusively on our store shelves in Kunstpalais until further notice. For urgent repeat orders or desires awakened via our Instagram account – we will gladly try to send you these things as well. 
We will accept your orders by e-mail, stating the item number, at info@kunstpalais.de. Purchases worth up to EUR 100 (plus shipping costs) will be sent to you on account within Germany. For amounts over 100 EUR (plus shipping costs) we will send the goods immediately upon receipt of proof of payment.
Werner Kohn. Streetlife
The photographic selection of color slide positives presented here is also a document of Werner Kohn's life. A restless traveler who sees not only his excursions to distant countries, but also his walks in Bamberg as a journey. Werner Kohn has visited more than 50 countries in the course of his life. With his photos, he has now compiled his personal "family of men" in a book and exhibition. He met the people of this "family" in the big cities and in the countryside, in their different civilizations and in nature, alone and in company, in cheerful, funny and melancholy situations. These are images that tell of poverty and contentment, of busyness and tranquillity, images of often cinematic narrative power, whose humor comes from a surrealistically directed sense of the absurd. Even though the photographs were taken in a relatively short period of time spanning just one human life, the non-simultaneity of the simultaneity of human cultures inherent in them gives the impression that they encompass thousands of human years in the essence of what it means to be human.

The exhibition "Werner Kohn - STREETLIFE" was shown for the first time at the Städtische Galerie Erlangen from September 13 - October 19, 2008.
