Duensing & Wollheim

People are different. Some seek to gather themselves, others gather to divert themselves.“ (Eugen Roth)

Two collections, four perspectives, one Nizza. Works acquired by Thomas Wollheim and Anette & Stefan Duensing come together – curated by the collectors themselves: Tjorg Douglas Beer and Ronny Szillo from the Wollheim Collection, Dietmar Busse and Rebekka Kronsteiner from the Duensing Collection.

Every collection tells a story. About the works, the person who assembled them, and the environment that produced them. Collecting is one of the oldest cultural practices: orientation in a complex world, creating order, meaning and connections between objects. Every collection is also a form of thinking and imagining.
