“We are delighted to have Dr. Wall advising the District of Esslingen on matters of art. For our new building he developed a compelling and high-quality art concept. Dr. Wall has a remarkable ability to navigate the complex interplay between artistic, administrative and architectural considerations. On a personal level as well, working with Dr. Wall is always a great pleasure.”

“I first encountered Tobias Wall as the organizer of the Outsider Art festival Coming In!. I was impressed by his precise and tireless planning, his exceptional ability to communicate complex ideas to a wide range of personalities, his confident sense for exhibition design, and his thoughtful and eloquent opening speech.”

“As curator on behalf of Kreissparkasse Ostalb, working closely with the City of Schwäbisch Gmünd, Tobias Wall led the design process for a memorial marking the former synagogue with outstanding professional expertise and great personal commitment. From initiating the nationwide design competition to the realization of the winning proposal, his experience and exceptional communication skills were key to the success of both the process and the final result in this particularly sensitive context. His keen awareness of the many public interests involved made him especially well suited to this delicate task.”

“For me, Tobias Wall is a bridge-builder between art and its audience: approachable, unpretentious, authentic, highly likeable and empathetic – and above all deeply knowledgeable about art. In short: Tobias Wall truly understands art.”

“Whenever I develop an ambitious artistic project that is also challenging to finance, Tobias is one of the first people I consult. His critical insight, strategic advice and ideas for funding opportunities often lay the groundwork for turning my projects into reality. With his extensive experience in arts and cultural funding and his work with several foundations, he is an invaluable advisor.”

“As a member of the Art Advisory Board, Dr. Tobias Wall has advised the Cultural Office of the City of Nürtingen on its exhibition programme for many years. His ideas and strong connections within the art world have had a lasting impact on our exhibitions. His curatorial concepts and openings resonate not only with the administration but especially with the public. The widely acclaimed Outsider Art festival Coming In! in 2024 originated from his idea and, under his artistic direction, became one of Nürtingen’s cultural highlights in recent years. Working with Dr. Tobias Wall is not only highly successful, but always a great pleasure.”

“We’re getting incredible praise from ‘experts’ – gallerists, art professors, artists, collectors, art teachers, journalists (the exhibition that’s ‘absolutely fantastic!’). It’s really quite something: everyone’s enthusiastic and keeps saying they’ve never seen such a good event and exhibition before. And it doesn’t sound like empty flattery – it comes straight from the heart, backed up with clear criteria. Everything was planned right down to the point: Tobias’s relaxed, effortless yet precise and perfectly timed presentation, and last but not least the excellent exhibition display with those spot-on initial decisions by Tobias and you. Wow – a huge, huge thank you for that.”
