Collection

In 2024, positions from our collection were present in several exhibitions in Switzerland. In total, we were able to arrange loans to four exhibitions dedicated to the work of three artists from our collection: Tomas Kratky, Eva Wipf and Bernhard Schobinger.

For example, works by Tomas Kratky were presented in the two-part exhibition "A long way in a short time. Tomas Kratky and his Present". Eva Wipf was honoured with the impressive show "Seismograph in Night and Light", while "Bernhard Schobinger. B.S. Kosmos – 50 Years of Creation" offered a comprehensive insight into the work of the internationally renowned artist. These loans prove not only the artistic quality of our collection, but also its lively presence in the current exhibition events.
