Max Frintrop: Concept Space – abstract painting in the Bilker Bunker

With Concept Space, the Bilker Bunker presents from November 6 to December 6, 2026, for the first time an extensive solo exhibition by Max Frintrop in his hometown Düsseldorf. On Friday, November 20, the exhibition opens from 2:00 PM to 9:00 PM.

Color, Movement, and Spatial Depth

Max Frintrop primarily works with large-format abstract paintings. Color, ink, and pigments condense into multi-layered worlds of images, where depth, movement, and intense presence encounter one another. His works emerge from an immediate engagement with material and color – between intuitive gesture and conscious decision.

A Düsseldorf Position with International Presence

Frintrop is closely connected to the Düsseldorf art scene. He completed his studies at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf as a master student of Albert Oehle and developed his artistic environment there. Today, his painting enjoys international presence and is historically classified as contemporary abstraction.

Large-Format Painting and Focused Art Observation

The exhibition combines large-format works with smaller pieces. This opens up a differentiated approach to Frintrop's painting: while the large canvases captivate the gaze with dynamic fields of color and physical presence, the smaller formats allow for concentrated observation of the works and a more precise look at material, structure, and artistic decision.

When Painting Meets Concrete Architecture

Particularly impressive is the dialogue between the works and the architecture of the Bilker Bunker. The massive materiality of the former protective structure creates a tension-filled resonance space for the color-intensive, abstract worlds of images. Concrete, light, surface, and painting enter into an immediate relationship and transform the exhibition atmosphere with every movement through the spaces.

Art Experience and Cultural Education

The exhibition invites an aesthetic experience that does not explain perception but expands it. Visitors encounter a painting that mediates between surface and space, order and impulse, control and physical expression. The Bilker Bunker itself becomes part of the curation: A place with history opens up for contemporary art and new perspectives on space and perception.

Conclusion: Experience Abstract Art in a Historic Art Space

Concept Space connects Max Frintrop's unique visual language with the special atmosphere of the Bilker Bunker. Art enthusiasts can expect an intense art experience between color energy, material tension, and architectural presence. Anyone wanting to experience contemporary painting in an unusual Düsseldorf exhibition space should definitely visit this exhibition live.
