With “ReCollect!”, Kunsthaus Zürich adopts a curatorial approach that goes beyond traditional art historical interpretation. The collection becomes a space of artistic investigation. This shift in perspective invites the public to engage with alternative readings – political, poetic or formally experimental.
Interventions take place in dedicated sections within the collection galleries and are conceived for a minimum duration of one year. This allows for in-depth engagement and evolving perspectives over time.
“ReCollect!” builds on international museum practices like the National Gallery’s The Artist’s Eye in London, while also echoing the founding spirit of Kunsthaus Zürich – an institution established by artists and collectors. It reimagines curatorial authorship as a collaborative, creative act.
