KUNSt&So

Former „Museum für verwandte Kunst“ has recently changed its name to the more catchy „KUNSt&So“. Since 2014 the small location at the heart of Cologne’s Belgian quarter is headed by a young team consisting of Pola Bergmann and Jantina Lipphardt who have focused on exhibiting works of local and regional street artists in the cosy atmosphere of their art space. In the wake of „WallStreet“ group show in summer 2016 „KUNSt&So“ has developed into a monthly gathering place for the Cologne Street Art scene. As a consequence, many artists have left their marks in the form of countless paste-ups, stickers, stencils and small murals not only inside, but also in the place’s entry area and backyard – many motives should be familiar to those regularly roaming the streets of Cologne for street art. Smaller artworks and design objects are offered in the on-site art shop.
