Zusammen / Together (Bilingual edition)

This book is a comprehensive recollection of the exhibition highlights of Zurich's Museum Haus Konstruktiv from 2015 to 2022. Bringing together what has been separated in space and time, this retrospective reveals various links between contemporary artistic practices and the art-historical legacy of Constructivist, Concrete and Conceptual Art. A series of insightful conversations with the artists Etel Adnan, Claudia Comte, Elisabeth Goldring-Piene, Brigitte Kowanz, Alicja Kwade, Dóra Maurer, Amalia Pica, Tomás Saraceno, as well as in-depth texts on Imi Knoebel and William Kentridge are accompanied by exhibition views that verge between spectacular and calmly focused presentations. Many of the texts and installation shots have not been published before-their recontextualization shows, above all, what it takes to curate concise and relevant exhibitions of contemporary art today.
