Art Gallery
An art gallery or art house is a non-commercial institution that organizes art exhibitions .
description
Kunsthallen are usually run by local authorities. Private associations or foundations can also support an art house, such as art associations . The Kunsthallen are financed from the municipal budget and / or through state subsidies, sometimes also through donations and third-party allocations. In view of the high operating costs, the entrance fees usually play a subordinate role.
In contrast to an art museum in the true sense of the word, many art halls do not have their own collection. The artist's house , which is connected to studios or workshops , must be distinguished from the art house . The boundaries between the three terms are fluid: In the German-speaking area there are several art museums that call themselves “Kunsthalle”, and work in progress , symposia and infrastructure for local artists and artists in residence can be found in many forms of art institutions. The designation “Kunsthalle” can also indicate that the exhibition building was built for an existing collection or that both holdings from the company's own collection and temporary exhibitions are shown.
