Sammlung Falckenberg

The Sammlung Falckenberg is a major private collection of modern and contemporary art assembled by the lawyer and entrepreneur Harald Falckenberg. It comprises around 1,900 works by international avant-garde artists, and the trade magazine Artnews ranks it among the 200 best collections in the world. Prominent artists include Martin Kippenberger, Jonathan Meese, Thomas Hirschhorn, Daniel Richter, and Richard Prince. Since 2011, the collection has been organizationally part of the Deichtorhallen Hamburg and operates under the name Deichtorhallen Hamburg – Sammlung Falckenberg.

The exhibition space is housed in a former factory hall of the Phoenix Works in Hamburg-Harburg. The spacious rooms spread across five floors, which are connected by a cascading stairwell, offer plenty of room for large installations. You can view the works by advance appointment. In addition to the permanent collection, the resident Kulturstiftung Phoenix Art regularly presents temporary exhibitions in collaboration with international art collections.
