A delighted Norbert Kölle, Managing Director of the Hamburger Kunsthalle, said: "I am thrilled that we have already reached our visitor target for 2023 a fortnight before the major anniversary exhibition to mark the 250th birthday of Caspar David Friedrich." The museum's success is based on many diverse exhibitions on socially important topics and the appeal of its collection. In 2023, the Hamburger Kunsthalle presented exhibitions entitled "Breathing" and "Femme Fatale", a double exhibition on Vija Celmins and Gerhard Richter and the collection "1923 - Faces of an Era". The Hamburger Kunsthalle will be presenting the anniversary exhibition "Caspar David Friedrich. Art for a New Age" from December 15, 2023 to April 1, 2024. The comprehensive exhibition features over 60 paintings including rare loans by the Romantic landscape painter, who is generally considered the most important German artist of his generation.
