history

The Künstleronderbund was founded in April 1990 as a spin-off from the Deutscher Künstlerbund , in which especially figurative members no longer felt themselves adequately represented. It was founded on the initiative of Manfred Bluth , other founding members were Gisela Breitling , Tremezza von Brentano, Johannes Grützke , Matthias Koeppel and Ludmila Seefried-Matějková. The aim of the foundation was the creation of an independent forum for the "realism of the present" and improved public relations.

The Künstleronderbund has over one hundred members and over one hundred supporting members.

Exhibitions

In 1993 and 1996, exhibitions were held in the Martin-Gropius-Bau in Berlin, with which the association made its program known to the public.

Annual exhibitions have been held in Berlin since 2000, and their works from painting, graphics and sculpture are published in catalogs. In addition, since 2002 the half-yearly issues “Galerie” have been published.
