Heimsuchung: 40 Years of KGM at the Kulturforum

An anniversary like the 40th year of the Kunstgewerbemuseum (KGM) — opened in 1985 in the new building designed by Rolf Gutbrod at the Kulturforum in West Berlin — might typically call for a celebratory look back. The KGM has chosen a different path, inviting visitors into an active and critical engagement with the museum's many-layered history, its collection, and its place in the cultural landscape.
