Textile art meets coral reefs
The works of the award-winning artist Jérémy Gobé are inspired by natural coral reefs. He demonstrates how art can open up new pathways for sustainable action. The first exhibition of his work in Germany, held at the Museum for textile art Hannover, was co-funded by the Hannover Re Foundation.
Meisterschüler:innen
The Hannover Re Foundation supports talented young artists through the "Meisterschüler:innen" exhibition series. Since 2014, students at Braunschweig University of Art have been given the opportunity to display their works and have them documented in a high-quality catalogue. In 2025, the exhibition series was shortlisted for the German Cultural Sponsorship Prize.
James Turrell in Hannover
Do you know James Turrell? Born in Los Angeles in 1943, the artist is famous for his truly magical-seeming light and space installations. Turrell's arrival in Hannover brings one of contemporary art's most prominent figures to the capital of Lower Saxony. From 2026 onwards an installation that we have commissioned by Turrell in the artist's Skyspace series will be on view in the freshly restored sculpture garden in Hannover.
