When the city becomes a gallery: Where outside begins
With Where outside begins, kultur.lokal.fürth opens the behind-the-scenes view of the FREE AIR GALLERY from June 28 to July 12, 2026. The exhibition shows how art in public space is created, what decisions lie behind a mural, a sculpture, or a temporary installation, and how Fürth becomes an open art space in summer.
The public space as a studio
The FREE AIR GALLERY has established itself in Fürth as a defining form of urban art and social arts education. Facades, property boundaries, construction fences, and billboard areas are not only played with but transformed into visual narrative spaces. The exhibition makes visible how an idea becomes a work in urban space – from the sketch through permits to the assembly on-site.
Five works, five stories
Based on five selected works from six years of FREE AIR GALLERY, the exhibition tells tales of artistic processes, craftsmanship challenges, and the unique aesthetics of site-specific art. Works by Sascha Banck, Sabine Deifel, Anjo Haase, Karla Kracht, and Elizabeth Thallauer are mentioned. Thus, a study of the works emerges that takes into account not only the end result but also design, materials, spatial effects, and urban context.
Participate, reflect, see the urban space anew
Particularly appealing is the interactive station Art in Public Space. Here the exhibition becomes a museum education experience: Visitors can develop their own ideas for the urban landscape and connect aesthetic experience with cultural education. This makes the tour as inspiring as it is accessible.
A model project with radiance
Kultur.lokal.fürth is supported by the cultural office of the city of Fürth and is seen as a model project with exemplary character in the metropolitan region. For the FREE AIR GALLERY, this means a rare connection of curation, urban development, and participation. The exhibition shows not only art but also the infrastructure that makes art possible in everyday life.
Conclusion: Anyone who wants to experience Fürth as an open art space will find an intelligent, vivid, and sensually powerful approach to art in public space here. Where outside begins invites you to reconsider the city and discover the FREE AIR GALLERY live.
