The Museum Haus Konstruktiv owes its uniqueness within the cultural landscape to its three to six temporary exhibitions per year, which are conceived according to clear programmatic criteria: Aimed at highlighting the connections between the pioneers of constructive-concrete and conceptual art on the one hand and international contemporary art on the other, they bring renowned as well as new and rediscovered historical positions into dialogue with contemporary art concepts. The art-historical background is formed by Russian constructivism, the constructivist-concrete impulses of the 1920s and 30s, including the Bauhaus, kinetic art, Op Art and American minimal art of the 1960s, as well as the conceptual art of the 60s.
The centrepiece of the collection is Fritz Glarner's ‘Rockefeller Dining Room’ (1963/64): a walk-in picture based on the concept of ‘relational painting’ and a prime example of modern interior design.
The Museum Haus Konstruktiv is part of Löwenbräukunst.
