A small place.
A wonderful art collection.
The Kunsthalle Hochschwarzwald in Wieden.

Viktor Vasarely, Max Bill, Charles Lapicque, Honore Daumier, Richard Paul Lohse, Damien Hirst oder Roman Terechkowitch – they probably never imagined that their works would one day hang in Wieden, a small village between Feldberg and Belchen. Here in the southern Black Forest – less than an hour from Freiburg or Basel – the works of internationally known artists from the Himmelreich Kunstkollektion are presented over more than 500 square metres in the former operations building of the Gewerkschaft Finstergrund at the Kunsthalle Hochschwarzwald Wieden.

From spring 2026, more than 200 works—mostly contemporary art—will be on display in the exhibition rooms. Extensive collections offering insight into the work of various artists. Accompanying these, initiator Tobias Heimpel curates cultural events and makes generous spaces available to companies and organizations as meeting places and for offsite meetings.

A plea for printed art.
The social side of art.

Lithographs, series prints and images created by other printing processes are the underdogs of the art scene, which focuses on one-offs. In our opinion, undeservedly so. Because individually hand-signed originals printed in limited editions make the works of famous artists more accessible to people, since they can be seen in several places.

Because what really makes art valuable for people. It is the motifs, their execution, the intention and message of the artist, the quality of the work and the feeling of viewing an original individually signed by the artist that make an artist’s works so unique. And the accessibility of the originals personally signed by the artist. Uniqueness in execution offers no real added value.

Away from all metropolises.
The works of these and other artists can be found at the Kunsthalle Hochschwarzwald Wieden.

WANTED:
Companies passionate about art.

We also make works by individual artists from the ProzessPiraten art collections available to companies. As an exhibition in your company's foyer, to inspire employees, for events or functions to reach new customer groups. Or simply because your company wants to be perceived publicly as value-driven. Just ask us — we develop the concept, provide the artworks, convey values in KeyNotes and also support social media and marketing. After all, the ProzessPiraten were originally more marketing professionals than art lovers.

WELCOME:
COLLECTORS WHO PURCHASE INDIVIDUAL WORKS.

The displayed works as well as unique pieces from the collection are generally not for sale. Individual items are sold only upon specific request; we are happy to show you the works available for sale during a visit.
