ABOUT THE GALLERY

Founded by Céline and Heiner Bastian in 1989, the gallery is located in Berlin. It has been directed by Aeneas Bastian since 2016.

BASTIAN has an international reputation for presenting remarkable modern, post-war and contemporary works of art in solo exhibitions and curated group shows. Modern artists such as Max Liebermann, Emil Nolde and Pablo Picasso, as well as groundbreaking post-war artists including Joseph Beuys, Cy Twombly, Robert Rauschenberg and Andy Warhol, form the core of the exhibition program.

BASTIAN represents a number of outstanding contemporary artists including Paris based German artist Anselm Kiefer, film director and photographer Wim Wenders,Chinese painter Cui Ruzhuo as well as British artist Emma Stibbon.

The gallery has published numerous exhibition catalogues, artist monographs and catalogues raisonnés. You will find a selection of these publications in our shop.

BASTIAN regularly participates in a number of selected international art fairs, notably Art Basel Hong Kong, Frieze Masters London, and Art Cologne.

In recent years the gallery has presented several acclaimed exhibitions both in London (devoted to modern art) and in Paris (dedicated to women artists of our time).

In November 2021, the gallery moved to its present location, a gallery building designed by John Pawson, surrounded by a public garden in Dahlem.
