A kunsthalle is a facility that mounts temporary art exhibitions, similar to an art gallery.[1] It is distinct from an art museum by not having a permanent collection.

In the German-speaking regions of Europe, Kunsthallen are often operated by a non-profit Kunstverein [de] ("art association" or "art society"), and have associated artists, symposia, studios and workshops. They are sometimes called a Kunsthaus.

Origin, spelling and variants

The term kunsthalle is a loanword from the German Kunsthalle, a compound noun formed by combining the two nouns Kunst (art) and Halle (hall).

Like all nouns in German, the word is written with an initial capital letter. In English, it should be written with a lower-case letter (kunsthalle) unless it is the first word of a sentence or part of a title. The plural form Kunsthallen is usually rendered as kunsthalles.[2]

The term is translated as kunsthal in Danish, kunsthal in Dutch, kunstihoone in Estonian, taidehalli in Finnish, kunsthall in Norwegian and konsthall in Swedish.[3]

[it] Kunsthalle

Una Kunsthalle o Kunsthaus è un termine della lingua tedesca che indica un edificio nel quale vengono realizzati mostre ed esposizioni artistiche. Questa parola può essere tradotta con Galleria d'arte, benché essa abbia un'accezione più specifica. Una Kunsthalle è spesso diretta da una Kunstverein ("società artistica") e si riferisce ad una galleria o ad un museo al quale collaborano diversi artisti, vi si tengono conferenze, convegni e laboratori. Una Kunsthalle è simile ad un Kunstmuseum ("Museo d'arte"), pur non essendo equivalenti i termini: un Kunstmuseum ha la sua collezione permanente, mentre, solitamente, una Kunsthalle ne è priva.

Первоначальное значение «Кунстхалле» в немецком языке — «выставочный зал, не располагающий собственными фондами», однако некоторые Кунстхалле являются музеями и располагают весьма известными собственными коллекциями.
