Something is moving! is the exhibition at the Kunstmuseum Gelsenkirchen, created in collaboration with elementary school children from Gelsenkirchen. Starting from November 4, 2026, it invites visitors to discover movement, change, and artistic ideas in the museum.
The focus is on the exhibition developed by the children. Their works will be presented alongside kinetic pieces from the collection of the Kunstmuseum Gelsenkirchen. This allows current perspectives of young exhibitors to meet works of art characterized by movement, mechanics, or the impression of movement.
Exhibition at the Kunstmuseum Gelsenkirchen
“Something is moving!” is aimed at everyone who wishes to experience art from different perspectives. The combination of contributions from elementary schools with works from the museum collection makes it visible how diverse artistic engagements with movement can be. Visitors can explore the exhibition at their leisure and compare the different forms, ideas, and expressions.
The exhibition opens on November 4, 2026 at the Kunstmuseum Gelsenkirchen and will be on display until February 2027. This offers several months of opportunity for a museum visit in Gelsenkirchen. The presentation is particularly suitable for families, school classes, and anyone interested in the creative perspective of children as well as kinetic art.
