Manifesta 16 Ruhr at the Gethsemane Church Bochum: Experience art, history, and spiritual atmosphere
At the Gethsemane Church Bochum, faith experience and contemporary art meet in a special space for reflection. Manifesta 16 Ruhr opens the church as a place for exhibition, dialogue, and community perception – supported by the quiet dignity of a Protestant house of worship and the openness of a cultural meeting point.
A place that brings faith and art together
Manifesta 16 Ruhr transforms selected churches in the Ruhr area into vibrant spaces for exhibitions, workshops, and site-specific installations. In Bochum, the Gethsemane Church is one of those places where spiritual tradition and contemporary art engage in a respectful exchange. This makes the visit a religious and cultural experience that provides space for contemplation, perception, and community.
The Gethsemane Church as a special backdrop
The Gethsemane Church is a Protestant emergency church from the post-war period and therefore part of a turbulent church history. Its simple, dignified character shapes the atmosphere of the place. Those who enter here not only experience an exhibition but also a piece of Protestant architectural and community history that tells of hope, reconstruction, and solidarity to this day.
