Museum Haus Konstruktiv

Situated in the heart of Zurich, Museum Haus Konstruktiv is one of the leading galleries in the Swiss cultural landscape. The still-thriving mindset of the Zurich Concretists – Max Bill, Richard Paul Lohse, Verena Loewensberg and Camille Graeser – and the stimuli of intellectually akin conceptual art constitute the notional basis for the exhibitions and their accompanying events.
Six to nine temporary exhibitions a year, consistently conceived according to clear programmatic perspectives, make Museum Haus Konstruktiv unique within the cultural landscape.
The Rockefeller Dining Room (1963/64), conceived and implemented in New York by Swiss artist Fitz Glarner for Nelson A. Rockefeller and his wife, is a permanent installation and simultaneously the centerpiece of the collection. This walk-through painting is a prime example of a so-called "Relational Painting."

Yves Netzhammer

27.10.2022 - 15.01.2023

Mit Yves Netzhammer (*1970 in Affoltern am Albis, lebt und arbeitet in Zürich) präsentiert das Museum einen der profiliertesten Schweizer Künstler seiner Generation. Die Basis seiner installativen Arbeiten bilden Computeranimationen, die er ortsspezifisch mit Objekten, Zeichnungen und Wandmalereien zu raffinierten, vielschichtigen Environments inszeniert. Die dabei entstehenden poetischen Bildwelten sind sowohl der Figuration als auch der ungegenständlichen Form verpflichtet.
