The Bucerius Kunst Art Forum has only been around since 2002 but has become one of the principal cultural institutions in Northern Germany. The art museum which presents themed art exhibitions from collections on loan rather than having a permanent collection, is located in the Rathausmarkt market plaza neighboring the Hamburg Rathaus (City Hall) and near the canal locks which separate the Alster lakes from the canals to the Elbe River. The exhibition space is the columned building from the early 20th Century and Named for Gerd Bucerius co-founder and publisher of Germany’s well know Der Zeit newspaper, the museum is funded by the ZEIT Foundation. Open daily from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. with special "Lunch" and "After Work" tours. The Bucerius Kinder Kunst Club is a program for kids to be introduced to art through a painting class connected with the exhibition theme.
