Art at KWS

As a family-owned company, KWS stands for tradition, a down-to-earth approach and for successful plant breeding, but also for growth and open-mindedness. It is therefore particularly important to us to encourage diversity, individuality and creativity. Coming from this point of view, art and culture as a special offer for employees and society become a key element of our commitment.

Within the company, this is reflected in our values - an open, creative working environment, freedom for experimentation and play. Through art, we convey new perspectives and emotional, sensual, subjective elements into everyday work.

With our "Art in the BiT" series of events, we have been regularly bringing artists and their works into our working environment for 25 years and at the same time invite the interested public to the KWS research building "Biotechnikum" as part of the exhibition openings. In Einbeck's old town, we have maintained the NEWCOMER KWS Art Lounge since 2015, a gallery that sees itself primarily as a springboard for young artists and aims to enrich the cultural offerings in the region.

Please feel free to visit one of our current exhibitions on the web or directly on site!

Current exhibitions

Luzia Simons –
On Stage

The works of Luzia Simons (b. 1953 in Brazil) testify to her close relationship with nature, with flowers, plants, and trees in their infinite diversity. The splendor of the equatorial forests and the lush vegetation of her home country are as much a part of the artist’s pictorial world as European vegetation.

Exhibition in the BiT until April 15, 2025

Art in the BiT

For 25 years, the event series “Kunst im BiT” has been held on the company premises in Einbeck with exhibitions of regional, national and also international successful artists.

The location has been carefully chosen: Scientific and artistic creativity meet in the Biotechnikum, where research is conducted with passion and great know-how. In several annual exhibitions, the "Art in the BiT" series invites KWS employees and interested members of the public to engage with contemporary perspectives of painters, graphic artists and photographers and question established habits of seeing and thinking.

New perspectives are the key to creativity
– in art and science.

The exhibitions are not limited to classic painting but can comprise all possible art forms, also newly invented and reinvented ones: sculpture, photography, print graphics, visual media, light installations or performance art.

Photography – poetically also „painting with light“: By combining light, space, and nature purposefully, the photographer manages to create a unique atmosphere around a motif.

What is important to us

With our exhibitions we support young artists and expand the variety of cultural venues in our region. However, for KWS, engagement with art means much more than social commitment.

"As a plant breeder and research company, we are dependent on characteristics such as curiosity, the willingness to experiment, and openness. Innovation needs room to develop - just like art. That is why I am convinced: art makes a difference. By engaging with it, we are able to gain energy and inspiration for our own drive."

Dr. Felix Büchting, Spokesperson of the Executive Board
