Art

We promote contemporary art and music, which we present in exhibitions, concerts and experimental project formats. GEH8 supports regional as well as international, established as well as up-and-coming artists and brings different artistic approaches and genres into dialogue. We cooperate within the framework of international artist and curator residencies and are committed to the cultural education of children and young people.
