Latest Events in Zurich(November Updated)

The works of Maria Lassiniger (born 1919 in Kapel-Amklapfeld, died 2014 in Vienna) and Edvard Munch (born 1863 in Lothen, died 1944 in Eklee near Oslo) are exhibited together for the first time in a major exhibition. At first glance, the Austrian artist and the Norwegian painter—whose collection of Munch paintings is the largest outside of Norway at the Vienna State Museums—are separated by more than half a century. However, their works and lives share striking similarities. This thematic juxtaposition allows for a fresh perspective on their work. Both artists used color not only as a design element but also as a powerful means of expressing their inner world: emotions, bodily sensations, and their relationship with the world. For Maria Lassiniger, as for Edvard Munch, painting was not merely an artistic technique, but a way of self-examination. Their works depict inner and outer states that evoke direct emotional resonance in the viewer. The exhibition's subtitle—"The Flow of Painting = The Flow of Life"—is taken from one of Maria Lassiniger's paintings. It perfectly encapsulates the essence that connects the two: life and art are inseparable. This exhibition comprises approximately 160 paintings and works on paper, and was generously supported by the Oslo MUNCH, the Maria Lassnig Foundation, the Swiss UNIQA Art Insurance Company, the Truus and Gerrit van Riemsdijk Foundation, and the Roswitha Haftmann Foundation.

War, past and present, has been an integral and vital part of Swiss history. This exhibition brings together multiple perspectives to showcase how war has influenced Switzerland's political structure, economic interests, and social order from the late Middle Ages to the present.From the myths that built identity around the Battle of Mülten, to internal conflicts such as the Peasants' War of 1653 and the Sondnes War of 1847, and even the potential threat posed by World War II: war in all its forms has shaped Switzerland's self-perception. Whether wars occurred within or outside modern Switzerland, they gave rise to new power relations and social contradictions—for example, the accumulation of capital through the arms and mercenary trade, the exacerbation of class conflict, and the transformation of gender roles.

Placebo's 2026 tour will stop in Zurich on November 4, 2026. Placebo is a London-based British rock band formed in 1994 by vocalist and guitarist Brian Molko and bassist Stefan Olsdal.

Their early representative works include the 1998 album *Without You I'm Nothing* and the 2000 album *Black Market Music*. This tour is part of the band's 2026 tour, and Zurich is one of the stops. The performance will primarily feature the band's past works, but the specific setlist is subject to change.
