Josef Albers Museum Quadrat Bottrop (50th Anniversary)
In 2026, the Quadrat Museum Center will celebrate its 50th anniversary.
On June 14, three exhibitions will open to mark the anniversary: a major retrospective of the artist, theorist, and pioneer of constructive concrete art Richard Paul Lohse will be on view in the extension building from June 14 through October 11, 2026. In the Modern Gallery, the exhibition “50 Years of Quadrat” invites you to take a lively look back at the museum’s history, while the Museum of Prehistory and Local History commemorates the museum’s founding and early years with an exhibition on Arno Heinrich. Together, these three exhibitions form a festive anniversary program that combines the museum’s past, present, and future, presenting the vibrant and sometimes visionary exhibition and collection history of the Bottrop Museum Center in a varied tour.
