The Falckenberg Collection in the Phoenix Fabrikhallen in Hamburg-Harburg presents the private collection of Harald Falckenberg (1943-2023) on over 6,000 square metres and five floors, with a focus on German and American contemporary art from the 1980s onwards.
The Falckenberg Collection has been an important part of the Deichtorhallen Hamburg since 2011. The rooms of the listed factory building, redesigned by Berlin architect Roger Bundschuh, provide the architectural framework for the collection, which comprises around 2,400 works of contemporary art. The focus is on German and American contemporary art from the last 40 years.
The generous spatial concept enables the permanent presentation of impressive installations and multimedia projects by artists such as John Bock, Thomas Hirschhorn, Mike Kelley, Jonathan Meese and Gregor Schneider.
Since 2011, numerous solo exhibitions have been presented in the Falckenberg Collection: Marilyn Minter (2011), Monica Bonvicini (2012), Santiago Sierra (2013), Philip Guston (2014), Lynn Hershman Leeson (2015), Raymond Pettibon (2016), Hanne Darboven (2017), Astrid Klein (2018), Katharina Sieverding (2020), Tomi Ungerer (2021), Charlotte March (2022) and Cindy Sherman (2023).
A special feature of the exhibition centre is the sliding warehouse, which can be visited as part of guided tours of the collection. Visitors are given an overview of the entire collection and thus also have access to works not currently on display.
