Marta Herford is more than just art: art, design and architecture, which are usually kept separate, can be found here under one roof. And what a roof it is. The sculptural museum building from 2005 is an impressive original. The work of star architect Frank Gehry. The unique building is now a hallmark of Herford's originality and cosmopolitanism.
Marta Herford sets standards. Innovatively conceived and forward-looking, it is a place where knowledge, thinking and creativity are combined with joie de vivre. Here, questions about the present meet ideas for tomorrow.
Marta Herford is an internationally oriented museum for contemporary art with a special focus on the links to architecture and design. Exhibiting and communicating are at the heart of our commitment to art. At the same time, we are committed to the classic tasks of a museum: Collecting, preserving and researching. With our focus on contemporary trends and developments, we always remain curious, open and experimental. The communication of our ideas to the outside world is rooted in a regional identity and is based on an international network.
