Since 2018, the Stiftung Kunstforum Berliner Volksbank has been using its new premises at Kaiserdamm 105, which are located directly on the quiet Lietzenseepark. Previously, from 1985 to 2016, over one hundred exhibitions had been presented at the old location in Budapester Straße in collaboration with national and international museums and art institutions.

The institution's programme aims to bring the works in Berliner Volksbank's art collection more to the attention of people in Berlin and Brandenburg, as well as tourists.. The former corporate collection is therefore the focus of the exhibition activities. It comprises more than 1,500 works by around 200 artists with a strong emphasis on German representational art after 1950.

In the early days, the collection initially concentrated on GDR art from East Berlin, but also on outstanding representatives of the Leipzig School such as Bernhard Heisig, Werner Tübke and Wolfgang Mattheuer. Since 1990, works by Berlin and Brandenburg artists have been collected. The main focus is on figurative art under the motto „Images of People“, later extended to include „Berlin Cityscapes“.

Two exhibitions are usually presented each year, supplemented by interactive guided tours, themed events and workshops for children and young people in the creative workshop. In the workshops, the artists' techniques, themes and motifs are explained and creatively realised. The KUNSTFORUM Foundation of Berliner Volksbank gGmbH also lends out works, most frequently the well-known painting "Januskopf" by Harald Metzkes, which hung in Bellevue Palace until 2020.
