Welcome to the Philipp Otto Runge Foundation

The Philipp Otto Runge Foundation

In 2003, Philipp Otto Runge, the artist's great-grandson of three times, founded the foundation of the same name in memory of the artist and his brother. In doing so, he laid the foundation for one of the most interesting ideas of the foundation: the combination of research into art around 1800 with funding projects of current, young artists. The projects and initiatives funded so far – especially in congenial cooperation with the Hamburger Kunsthalle – are based on this inspiring foundation idea. We would like to welcome you to the "Cosmos Runge. The Morning of Romanticism"!
