Our approach

Art can open up new possibilities. Art can inspire, provoke, enrich, and empower. Art can draw attention to important topics, invite action, create connections, and foster community. To advance this, we want to engage with you, our visitors, on a variety of occasions.

We support and value creative processes, providing spaces for possibilities. We encourage participation in current discourses and create contemporary access points: testing boundaries, learning, having fun – the SCHIRN is the place for it. We stand for open, vibrant meeting points, whether at the SCHIRN, in urban spaces, or digitally.

Together with you, we want to explore themes inspired by and connected to art, and examine diverse perspectives – thinking, developing, and experimenting collaboratively. In doing so, we are particularly interested in the connections to your world.

Our foremost goal is to create access to art.
We see our work as a learning process, critically reflecting on ourselves and staying curious. We handle our environment and materials responsibly and sustainably.

Through reciprocal exchange with a diverse range of people in society, we work to break down barriers and promote diversity and inclusion in all we do. To achieve this, we collaborate sustainably with a network of communities, partners, and other institutions.
