Experience art in Karlsruhe
The Karlsruhe light rail tunnel is unique in many respects: GENESIS by painter Markus Lüpertz, Germany's largest continuous ceramic artwork, is on display here as a 365-day gallery. The 14 works of art are the only project in the world to decorate the stops here under a uniform theme. The cycle, based on the story of creation, was created by the internationally renowned artist over many years. Karlsruhe is experiencing art and in Karlsruhe you can experience art!
