Opened in 2022 and located in the former Zenger Transformer Station in the historical centre of Prague, Kunsthalle Praha’s mission is to support artistic discovery and to bring the experience of art of the 20th and 21st centuries to the widest possible audience. The conversion of the Kunsthalle’s building has been awarded a number of prizes, including the prestigious Architects’ Grand Prix national award for 2022.
Since opening to the public in 2022, Kunsthalle Praha has held a number of major exhibitions of modern and contemporary art including Kinetismus: 100 Years of Electricity in Art (February – August 2022), guest curated by Peter Weibel, Gregor Hildebrandt: A Blink of an Eye and the Years are Behind Us (September 2022 – February 2023), the artist’s largest exhibition to date, and Bohemia: History of an Idea, 1950-2000 (March – October 2023), guest curated by the California-based Russell Ferguson.
