On 6 June 2025, DIE GALERIE will ring in the summer with an exhibition that is diverse, colourful, spontaneous and a little loud. This is how CoBrA, the mid-20th century artists' group, was - young, wild, immediate and impulsive. Although the group quickly disbanded and its members went on to important international careers, CoBrA's ideas were enduring and groundbreaking. Many of the artists remained friends and collaborators for decades.

Based on personal friendships and connections, DIE GALERIE has long been committed to the artists of the CoBrA group. To this day, there is a particularly strong bond between gallery owner Peter Femfert and Pierre Alechinsky, one of the most influential networkers of CoBrA and, at 97 years of age, the last living representative of this group.

О ГАЛЕРЕЕ

DIE GALERIE была основана Питером Фемфертом в 1979 году. Концепция галереи достаточно сложная – здесь представлены новаторские течения в искусстве ХХ века, а также актуальные многообещающие и разнообразные произведения. Галерея организует выставки как в стенах своей галереи во Франкфурте-на-Майне, так и в музеях, культурных центрах и всемирно известных галереях. В сферу деятельности галереи также входит издание книг, экспертиза и консультирование коллекционеров. Акцент галерея делает на сюрреализм, группу КОБРА и современное фигуративное искусство. Галерея регулярно принимает участие в крупнейших арт-событиях в Европе, Азии и США.
