You’re no doubt familiar with him, but you may not have heard of her before: Wassily Kandinsky was already famous in his lifetime and considered himself the creator of the first abstract painting. But the Swedish painter Hilma af Klint was already producing abstract work a number of years before her Russian counterpart! Look forward to the unique opportunity to compare and contrast the works of two pioneering artists. In K20. Feeling romantic? You will be soon! Because as the end of spring draws near, the Schumannfest will whisk you away to a world in which the sounds of yesteryear meet the present day and merge to create a symphony of emotions. For example, Lia Pale has taken the liberty of transposing Romantic lieder to the world of jazz. Indulge yourself in this musical magic which is sensuous and brimming with surprises! You absolutely mustn’t miss this on 1 June: Japan Day in Düsseldorf is the East Asian country’s biggest cultural festival in Europe. The banks of the Rhine near the city centre are the festival’s hotspot. It features samurai shows, Japanese food in all its variety, Japanese drummer shows and, of course, what are known as cosplayers, who make Japan Day an extra special attraction.
