KÖNIG GALERIE, established by Johann König in Berlin in 2002, has emerged as a leading platform for modern and contemporary art. The gallery, now managed by Lena and Johann König, represents over 40 international emerging and established artists, many of whom belong to a younger generation. The gallery's focus is on interdisciplinary, concept-oriented, and space-based approaches in various media, including sculpture, video, sound, painting, printmaking, photography, and performance.

In May 2015, KÖNIG GALERIE moved to St. Agnes, a former Brutalist church built in the 1960s in Berlin. The gallery hosts exhibitions in two different spaces: the former Chapel and Nave. The building, one of the most iconic examples of Brutalist architecture in Germany, was respectfully converted by the renowned architect Arno Brandlhuber. The conversion won the Berlin Architecture Prize in 2016. In April 2021, the gallery expanded its reach by opening a branch, KÖNIG SEOUL, in the South Korean capital.

KÖNIG GALERIE has successfully placed works in various private and public collections, including the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the Guggenheim Foundation. The artists represented by the gallery have been the subject of solo exhibitions in institutions worldwide and regularly partake in prestigious group exhibitions, such as Documenta and the biennials in Venice, Berlin, New York, and others. They have been awarded many significant prizes, commissions, and public projects.

Notable exhibitions hosted by the gallery include "Dennis Osadebe: Modern Magic," "Ayako Rokkaku: Imagination for Flying," and "Fabian Warnsing: Rain Drops Rain Bows." These exhibitions have not only showcased the diverse talents of the artists represented by the gallery but also contributed to a greater awareness of significant contemporary art.

Beyond its exhibition program, KÖNIG GALERIE is also a publishing house. It has published many books, essays, and catalogues that have contributed to its vision and to art historical research, fostering the dissemination and sharing of contemporary art with a wider public.

KÖNIG GALERIE stands as a testament to the transformative power of art and the importance of cultural exchange. Its commitment to showcasing diverse artistic voices, fostering relationships with institutions, and maintaining a dynamic exhibition program has solidified its status as a leading institution in the contemporary art world. As it looks to the future, KÖNIG GALERIE will undoubtedly continue to champion the work of contemporary artists and contribute to the global discourse on contemporary art.
