From it´s inception, the gallery´s program focused on latest and mid-career artistic positions and longterm cooperations with established artists aiming to create a dialog between different generations and cultural backgrounds. Though the form and focus of these artists´work varies significantly, their practices overlap in a number of key areas: an engagement with general and fundamental themes that culture has historically dealt with, an interest in aesthetics and a willingness to engage with the poetic as well as the critical and the political.

In a globalized world it was essential to include positions from around the globe. Among others CONRADS worked with:

BORIS MIKHAILOV, 1938, Ukraine
MALICK SIDIBÉ, 1936–2016, Mali
MOUNIR FATMI, born 1970, Marocco
ROSEMARY LAING, 1959–2024, Australia
HIROSUKE YABE, 1972, Japan

Cooperations with other institutions were an essential part of the gallery´s conception. Conrads published monographs on artists of the gallery and participated in international artfairs starting at Art Cologne 1990, among others Art Brussels, ARCO Madrid, Paris Photo, Untitled Miami...
