Cooperations

University of Siegen

A cooperation contract between the museum and the University of Siegen was concluded in 1999, establishing common ground for mutual efforts in the fields of research, education, and museum practice.

The partnership builds on close ties to the art history/art pedagogic and media science faculties as well as to several interdisciplinary research groups and university institutions such as the special research group Media Upheavals or the post graduate program on intermediality. Especially for students of art history, art pedagogic, and media aesthetics getting to know the museum is a central, practically oriented component of their college education.
 

Westphalia Landesmuseum for Art & Cultural History Münster / Landschaftsverband Westfalen-Lippe (LWL)

Since 1999, a cooperation contract between the Support Association of the Museum and the Landschaftsverband Westfalen-Lippe has been in existence in which the grounds are lain for an extensive cooperation with the museum, conceptually, conservatory, and regarding museum practice. This contract was preceded by an intensive cooperation in the time before the founding of the museum between the Support Association and the former director of the Westphalia Landesmuseum, Prof. Dr. Klaus Bußman.  With his experience and contacts, Prof. Bußman was able to give the Museum of Contemporary Art Siegen its distinct conceptual profile.  His successor Dr. Hermann Arnhold has continued the collectively profitable cooperation since 2004.
