Galerie Michael Sturm, Stuttgart

The Galerie Michael Sturm, established in April 1996 in Stuttgart, is dedicated to advancing contemporary non-representational art. The gallery focuses on modern European and North American trends in painting, sculpture, and installation, particularly rooted in the traditions of constructivist, minimalist, and concrete art. It showcases a range of styles, from geometric abstraction to organic abstraction, alongside experimental photography.

The gallery emphasizes the exploration of painting and color, showcasing artists who work with material-based monochrome approaches and those who explore color as a visual phenomenon. Notable artists associated with the gallery include Marcia Hafif, Bridget Riley, Russell Maltz, and Kirstin Arndt. Additionally, the gallery collaborates with artists like Finnbogi Petursson, who represented Iceland at the 2003 Venice Biennial, and the British artist Roger Ackling.

Galerie Michael Sturm works closely with other international galleries to organize exhibitions, share art fair booths, and produce joint catalogs. The gallery also supports museums and art institutions, advises corporations and collectors on art acquisition, and participates in art advocacy organizations. Its presence at significant art fairs is crucial to maintaining its international profile and promoting its artists.
