arkadenale 2025

01 October to 10 December, 2024

What?
6th arkadenale_comeback

Since 2015, a themed exhibition – arkadenale – has been held every two years at the KUNSTARKADEN. In 2025, the arkadenale will focus on artists who have lived and worked in Munich and, for whatever reason, have left beautiful Munich.

We are calling on all artists concerned to apply for the 6th arkadenale in the Kunstarkaden.

We want to bring you back to Munich! Despite the challenges artists face here, Munich is still a place full of cultural significance. The exhibition should be more than just an opportunity to present your work and celebrate the past, but an invitation to return. Let’s break down the barriers and enrich Munich with your artistic perspectives.

Where?
In the municipal art space KUNSTARKADEN, Sparkassenstraße 3, 80331 Munich

As a forum for artistic experiments, as a platform for contemporary art, as a place for projects conceived in dialogue, the Kunstarkaden

dialogue-based projects, the Kunstarkaden promotes young artists from different cultural backgrounds living in Munich in group exhibitions. The works are staged and presented in interaction with the spatial conditions of the Kunstarkaden.

KUNSTARKADEN also supports the artists with publications about the respective exhibitions, thus ensuring a lasting impression.

When?
Opening: 11 November 2025

Duration: 20 December 2025 (possibly until the end of January 2026)

Who?
Artists who have left Munich and now live in other places in Germany.
