Our Cultural Foundation

As private bankers, we bear great responsibility for the wealth of our clients, but also for the present and future of our society. For this reason, cultural commitment has always been an important and integral part of our self-image as private bankers.

Support for culture and arts

The Hauck & Aufhäuser Cultural Foundation, established in 2008, plays a key role in our commitment. It supports non-profit projects in the field of culture and arts. The funding decisions are made by a three-member foundation board.

The Hauck & Aufhäuser Kulturstiftung is an independent foundation based in Frankfurt am Main. For this reason, it will retain its established name until further notice, although it is of course a core part of the Hauck Aufhäuser Lampe Group, as symbolized by its associated logo.

A museum guide for young people

Contemporary art is a challenge for many people. It is sometimes difficult to find an approach, as the works are not always immediately accessible to the viewer. Contemporary art is not "light fare" that we can consume quickly and easily with our viewing habits. It demands an examination, often generating more questions than answers, and the viewer is often left perplexed and disillusioned. For this reason, we have developed a museum guide with so called " activity sheets" for children together with “DASMAXIMUM KunstGegenwart".

Our goal was to enable younger visitors in particular to explore the museum independently, thereby awakening and encouraging their artistic and cultural interest. With this in mind, we developed the activity sheets that children can take into the exhibition spaces and later home with them, helping them discover the artists and their works.
