history

The Kunstverein Braunschweig was founded in 1832 and has been showing contemporary art since 1946 in the early classicist Villa Salve Hospes on Braunschweig's Lessingplatz . The Villa Salve Hospes was built 1805-1808 according to plans by Peter Joseph Krahe as the residence of a merchant. Since 1996, young or experimental art has also been shown in the Remise of the Villa Salve Hospes on 60 m² of exhibition space. This means that 8 individual or group exhibitions take place in the Braunschweig Art Association every year.

In 2010, the Braunschweig Art Association had around 500 members and is a member of the German Art Association (ADKV).
