End of the Exhibition "For Children. Art Stories since 1968" & Launch of HausCode

"For Children. Art Stories Since 1968" comes to a close at Haus der Kunst on 31 May 2026, on the eve of International Children's Day – a coincidence of timing that reaffirms the exhibition's core commitment: taking children seriously as audience, as co-creators, and as social actors. What opened in July 2025 as the result of several years of research has, over the course of ten months, grown into one of the most-visited presentations in the museum's recent history. More than 131,000 visitors, a strikingly intergenerational public that included numerous school classes, as well as group and family visits, a four-month extension, and a nomination for the ART Curators’ Award for the best exhibition of 2025 mark the Munich chapter of the exhibition. In addition, international cultural practitioners and institutions have expressed strong interest in the exhibition's participatory approach, seeking exchange with Haus der Kunst. Conceived and developed at Haus der Kunst, "For Children" now travels onward to the Pinacoteca do Estado de São Paulo (30 May – 18 October 2026). Its resonance also extends into the digital realm: on 20 May 2026, Haus der Kunst launches HausCode, a new annual initiative for creative research and development, beginning with a first cycle dedicated to "For Children" and presenting three commissioned works.
