Queer Space: Sex Work at the Bundeskunsthalle: an evening full of perspectives, art, and conversation

On 2026-07-12, the Bundeskunsthalle in Bonn opens the space for a special event experience around the exhibition Sex Work. A Cultural History of Sex Work. The format Queer Space combines exhibition tour, creative engagement, and conversation – a cultural event that brings together current debates, historical perspectives, and the atmosphere of open exchange. The Bundeskunsthalle describes the exhibition as a collaboration with a collective of researching sex workers and emphasizes the guiding principle Nothing about us without us!

A tour that opens spaces

The focus is on an approach that goes beyond the surface. Art, cultural history, and archival material frame the topic of sex work in Europe from antiquity to the present. This creates an event experience that not only informs but also shifts perspectives and addresses target groups interested in social issues, queer culture, and exhibition formats with depth.

Conversation instead of distance

Following the exhibition tour, the format provides space for exchange. This is where the strength of Queer Space lies: event management focuses on encounter, reflection, and audience mood rather than simple knowledge transfer. The Bundeskunsthalle describes similar Queer Space formats as tours with conversation and creative deepening.
