1 Raum, 1 Werk
Installationen aus der Sammlung
with Judith Albert, Marion Baruch, Guy Ben Ner, Maria Nordman, Laure Prouvost, Philip Taaffe
This year’s collection exhibition is devoted to grand artistic gestures: one work in one room. These are not small works, but room-filling installations. Installation art extends beyond the pictorial or sculptural character of a work and usually involves the whole room. This gives rise to a particular artistic universe. Often the viewers are actively involved in observing and experiencing the work. The main focus is contemporary art, with works on show that have been acquired from the 1990s to today.
One highlight of the exhibition is the immersive room work Wantee (2013) by Laure Prouvost in which the artist interweaves fiction, art history and personal history.
The first phase featured works by Andreas Gehr, Walter Pfeiffer, and Vivian Suter. Now on display are works by Judith Albert, Marion Baruch, and Guy Ben Ner. The third phase begins on 08.09.2026.
