Inauguration of the  Art Depot and Atrium

Last month, SCHUNCK made a monumental move forward with the unveiling of their Art Depot and Atrium. This groundbreaking addition not only provides ample space to house their vast art collection, but also features cutting-edge electronic mobile art racks. By revolutionizing the traditional methods of storing and exhibiting artwork, this innovative technology allows for greater accessibility and exposure of pieces that may have otherwise been hidden from public view.

SCHUNCK has recently unveiled their electronic mobile art racks, a groundbreaking innovation in the art world. These first-of-their-kind racks are programmed with a storyline that guides visitors through an interactive art journey as the pieces gracefully move back and forth. The debut of these electronic mobile art racks on January 25th not only celebrated Heerlen's rich history, but also positioned SCHUNCK at the forefront of the global art scene. SCHUNCK invites all to witness this innovation and be a part of the innovative experience.
