40 Years of Shedhalle Zurich
LOVING SHEDHALLE – ABUNDANCE
October 25 – January 11
Loving Shedhalle – Abundance brings together fifteen artistic positions from the past forty years that are connected to Shedhalle in particular ways. The exhibition activates the archives of Shedhalle and is based on numerous conversations with people who have worked here. Abundance honors practices of relating and interweaving as an anti-heroic continuity of collective efforts that manifest themselves in repeated or continuous engagements with the Shedhalle. The invited works and artistic practices support each other and form relations without diluting their own specificities. With exuberant joy, Loving Shedhalle – Abundance celebrates not only the archival holdings, but also the very existence of the Shedhalle itself.
The Confluence event series [Link to Events] —with discussion rounds, guided tours, performances, concerts, listening sessions, communal meals, and workshops—creates contextualizing moments that bring together actors from different times. The exhibition is complemented and expanded upon in the publication Resonance [Link to publikation] and the online archive [Link to Archiv].
