The ZF Art Foundation supports charitable organizations such as the Kunstverein Friedrichshafen, the Birnauer Kantorei and festivals such as the Kulturufer and the Friedrichshafen Film Festival. But it is also active itself. The biennial piano competition, in which talented pianists compete for the ZF Music Prize, is particularly popular.

The foundation also awards a scholarship for visual artists to bring outstanding talent to Lake Constance. The scholarship holders can live in Friedrichshafen for nine months and devote themselves entirely to their projects in the ZF Turmatelier. The results of their work are then presented in an exhibition at the Zeppelin Museum Friedrichshafen. Art education, personal meetings with the artists during studio visits or exhibition openings play an important role.

To celebrate its 25th anniversary, the ZF Art Foundation is presenting an exhibition at the Zeppelin Museum that looks back on 25 years of the foundation's work. The focus is on the people - founders, partners, award winners and the 34 scholarship holders and their works that were created in Friedrichshafen. Stefan Rohrer, scholarship holder in the anniversary year, is particularly highlighted, depicting the acceleration and intoxication of speed in his shiny, colorful sculptures. The centerpiece of the exhibition is Stefan Rohrer's expansive sculpture Turbo. Also on display is his wall piece Schleudertrauma Nr. 11, which inspired Rohrer to create an artist's book that was presented to the public during the exhibition opening.
