Museum Haus Konstruktiv

The leading institution for constructivist-concrete, and conceptual art in Switzerland and is highly regarded internationally.

Selnaustrasse 25, 8001 Zürich, Switzerland

This art form, characterized by the accomplishments of the Zurich Concretists surrounding Max Bill, Richard Paul Lohse, Camille Graeser, and Verena Loewensberg from the 1930s to 1950s, is now so essential to the landscape of modernism, that it is no longer possible to imagine this landscape without it. We have made it our task to keep this art-historical heritage alive and to link it to contemporary art. One of our objectives is to demonstrate the interfaces that connect the legacy of constructivist-concrete art with the international art scene – and the past with the present.
