Otto Pankok Museum, Art museum in Hünxe, Germany.
The Otto Pankok Museum displays paintings, sculptures, and graphic works spanning the career of German expressionist artist Otto Pankok. The collection encompasses various techniques and periods of his artistic development, maintained by a dedicated foundation.
The museum was founded in 1968 when Hulda and Eva Pankok converted a barn into an exhibition space to preserve the artist's legacy. This transformation came from a desire to make Pankok's work accessible to the public.
The works on display focus on human figures and social themes, showing how Pankok approached everyday scenes and ordinary people. You can see his treatment of portraits, working people, and street life throughout the galleries.
The museum is housed in a converted outbuilding and offers both permanent exhibitions and archival materials to explore. A visit allows you to spend time in both areas and examine the collection thoroughly at your own pace.
Otto Pankok's 17th-century residence stands directly next to the museum, maintaining its original structure. This historic house gives visitors a glimpse into the artist's living environment and daily surroundings.
