The Founders

Because studios were built on the grounds of Insel Hombroich, all of the visual artists who were closely involved in setting up the museum also had a place to work there from the very beginning. These were:

• Gotthard Graubner † 2013
• Erwin Heerich † 2004
• Anatol Herzfeld † 2019

Second Generation

The acqui­si­tion of the Rake­ten­sta­tion later on made it possible to create studios and apart­ments for another gene­ra­tion of artists. Karl-Heinrich Müller granted the following indi­vi­duals studios and, in some cases, lifetime resi­den­tial rights:

• Michael Growe
• Oswald Egger
• Katharina Hinsberg
• Thomas Kling † 2005
• Oliver Kruse
• Ursula Kruse-Wormser
• Ute Langanky
• Katsuhito Nishikawa
• Georg Schmidt
• Christoph Staude

In addition to the above-mentioned parti­ci­pants, the following artists and archi­tects were involved in various ways in designing, estab­li­shing and deve­lo­ping Museum Insel Hombroich and the Stiftung Insel Hombroich foun­da­tion:
