Berlin, 25 January 2017 (kk) - Ketterer Kunst will celebrate the tenth anniversary of its representation in the German capital with a special exhibition. Around 40 works from just as many artists will be on display from 25 February on. Works by those artists have enthused the audience in auctions at Ketterer Kunst as well as in important museum shows in Munich and Berlin.

"I am very delighted to celebrate this jubilee with such a wonderful exhibition, at the same time it is a journey through the activities of Ketterer Kunst in the capital over the past ten years", says Robert Ketterer. He continues: "Berlin has always mattered to me, as it is the epicenter for Contemporary Art, it provides the perfect setting for innovative ideas and allows us to observe latest trends from a close perspective".

Even though Ketterer Kunst held annual auctions of Contemporary and Modern Art in the capital between 1997 and 2000, it opened a permanent branch in representative premises on Fasanenstraße 70 in Charlottenburg only ten years ago.

Ever since there has been lively interaction between the Munich headquarter and the Berlin representation, as the exhibition's title "On the Road between Munich and Berlin - 10 Years of Ketterer Kunst in the Capital City" suggests. The artworks travel as much as the Ketterer Kunst staff does, making many thousand miles between Munich and Berlin every year.

At 7 pm on Friday, 24 February, Robert Ketterer, auctioneer and company owner, will deliver the exhibition's opening speech with anecdotes from Ketterer Kunst's time in Berlin.

What ? Exhibition of around 40 works by artists such as Norbert Bisky, Willi Baumeister, Max Beckmann, Katharina Grosse, Gustav Klimt, Heinz Mack, Otto Mueller, Gabriele Münter, Emil Nolde, Wassily Kandinsky, Max Liebermann, Anselm Reyle, Pierre Soulages, Andy Warhol and Zao Wou-Ki.
When ? 25 February - 30 April 2017
Opening hours: Mon-Fri from 10 am to 6 pm and Sat. from 11 am to 4 pm.
Extra hours on the Gallery Weekend from 28-30 April 2017
