Museum Haus Konstruktiv is hosting the final exhibition at its current location!
This evening, October 2nd, 2024, marks the opening of the final exhibition at the Museum Haus Konstruktiv at its location in the ewz Unterwerk Selnau building, the place that for over two decades has been the home of one of Zurich’s most innovative museums. This exhibition, which also serves as a tribute to the industrial architectural structure, focuses on large-scale works by seven artists who have reinterpreted the space, shaping it and making each work an immersive experience for the visitor.
Carlos Bunga (b. 1976 Porto, PT, lives in Barcelona, ES), Carlos Cruz-Diez (b. 1923 in Caracas, VE, d. 2019 in Paris, FR), Fritz Glarner (b. 1899 in Zurich, CH, d. 1972 in Locarno, CH), Ana Montiel (b. 1981 in Logroño, ES, lives in Mexico City, MX), Reto Pulfer (b. 1981 in Bern, CH, lives in Uckermark, DE), Christine Streuli (b. 1975 in CH, lives in Berlin, DE), and Esther Stocker (b. 1974 in Schlanders, IT, lives in Vienna, AT) are the artists entrusted with interpreting this unique museum space before the location is officially moved to the Löwenbräukunst site in spring 2025.
“Concepts of the All-Over”, this is the title of the exhibition which, in the intent of the curators, as reported in the official press release, describes “the (painterly) principle of a more-or-less uniform composition that is dispersed across the whole surface of an image carrier and can potentially be continued beyond its boundaries. With regard to the almost 40-year history of Haus Konstruktiv though, ‘all over’ also refers to the end of a chapter: the museum’s imminent departure from its current location beside the River Sihl. With the exhibition title Concepts of the All-Over, we are deliberately playing with this double meaning. It’s about all-over artworks... and it’s all over!”
The exhibition will be on display until 13 April 2025, at the Museum Haus Konstruktiv, Zurich.
