About us
The Artists' Directory aims to contribute to the sustainable recognition of visual artists in Frankfurt am Main and the surrounding area. The directory is intended to serve as a reference work for all those interested in art, as well as for municipal offices, public institutions, and private art sponsors, to facilitate support for artists who live and work here.
The artists themselves decide with their application whether and how they will be included in the directory. If they agree, their field of activity will be presented with selected examples of their work. They can also provide a contact address so that those interested in art can get in touch with them. Artists with a completed degree from a state art college who have chosen Frankfurt am Main or the surrounding area as their center of life and work are included in the directory.
The Artists' Directory does not claim to be complete. Rather, this publication is intended to invite all visual artists in the region to submit an application for inclusion in the directory. The directory will always represent a work-in-progress, as the art scene, like other sectors in Frankfurt am Main, is subject to lively change.
Criteria for Artists' Inclusion
- Completed education at a state art academy
- Based in Frankfurt and its surroundings
- Maintenance of a studio
- Regular exhibition activities
All artists are free to apply, if they wish to be included in the artist directory of the City of Frankfurt am Main and believe they meet the inclusion criteria. A specialized committee decides on the application, and its decision is final and not subject to appeal.
