WorkART
WorkART Fellowship
In 2011, Arbeitsgemeinschaft Deutscher Kunstvereine (ADKV) began working with the University of Minnesota’s Center for German and European Studies (CGES) to facilitate an exchange between Kunstvereine and American students at the University of Minnesota, along with students from the Minneapolis College of Art and Design (MCAD), Macalester College since 2012 and Boston College since 2018. In 2013, the cooperation was expanded to include the “WorkART connections. Kunstverein Curators in the Twin Cities” program.
WorkART Connections
From time to time art association representatives and delegates from ADKV travel to Minneapolis to familiarize themselves with the study conditions there. The curatorial journey promotes a professional dialogue between Kunstvereine and the art scene in the American Midwest. This multi-faceted program encompasses visits, talks and lectures at art colleges and studios, various exhibition venues such as the Katherine E. Nash Gallery, the Walker Art Center, the non-profit organization Midway Contemporary Art and other important institutions.
