Kunsthalle Mainz is a brand that offers a captivating exploration of art and knowledge. They showcase thought-provoking exhibitions and programs that challenge conventional wisdom and embrace diverse perspectives. With a focus on transcending academic boundaries and acknowledging alternative cultural knowledge systems, Kunsthalle Mainz sheds light on marginalized positions and artistic practices that were once excluded from mainstream discourse.

The exhibition Olga Fröbe-Kapteyn – Tiefes Wissen delves into the fascinating life and multifaceted artistic practice of Olga Fröbe-Kapteyn, an intriguing figure who explored Theosophy and Eastern philosophy before it became widely recognized. Her geometric and powerful meditation panels, along with the visions inspired by her collaboration with psychologist Carl Gustav Jung, form an integral part of her comprehensive artistic expression. Additionally, the exhibition features five contemporary artists, including Monia Ben Hamouda, Kerstin Brätsch, Hylozoic/Desires, Mountain River Jump!, and Sriwhana Spong, who provoke alternative narratives and challenge dominant paradigms through their works.

By emphasizing the transformative power of art and images, Kunsthalle Mainz invites visitors to engage with unconventional forms of knowledge and promotes critical, anti-colonial perspectives. The exhibition is generously supported by the Eranos Foundation, the Ministry for Families, Women, Culture, and Integration, and the Mainzer Volksbank
