Intro

As part of the ReCollect! series, Wolfgang Laib's works will be juxtaposed with masterpieces from the Kunsthaus Zürich collection.

Laib's works enter into a transhistorical dialog with around 30 works from the collection - from the Middle Ages to the 20th century. On display are works by Fra Angelico (circle), Matteo di Giovanni, Philippe de Champaigne, Claude Monet, Ferdinand Hodler, Alberto Giacometti, Constantin Brancusi, Giorgio de Chirico, Wassily Kandinsky, Verena Loewensberg, Piet Mondrian, Barnett Newman, Mark Rothko, Robert Ryman, Sophie Taeuber-Arp and Lee Ufan, among others.

Around 50 central works by Laib make his visual language tangible: a large-scale pollen work, a Brahmanda (egg-shaped stone sculpture), milk stone, ziggurat, a walk-in wax room, rice houses, a lacquer staircase and other sculptures, drawings and photographs. In addition, we are showing influential works of Asian art, particularly from India - including an important Jain marble statue of Jina Rishabha on loan from Museum Rietberg.
