Vilhelm Hammershøi: "The Eye That Listens" | Museum of Art (Kunsthaus Zurich)

Jul 3–Oct 25, 2026 (UTC+1)

Zurich

Exhibitions

A tranquil space, soft light, and subtle alterations to the familiar: the Kunstmuseum Zurich will host Switzerland's first comprehensive museum exhibition of Wilhelm Hammershøi's work. His paintings emphasize perception, atmosphere, and the delicate tension between space and objects.Empty rooms, closed doors, figures with their backs to the viewer: Hammershøi's paintings eschew narrative. There is no action, but rather a sense of focused concentration. The space is both familiar and strange, light gently sweeping across the walls, objects presenting a serene presence.His work is characterized by the most subtle gradations of soft color. The almost imperceptible variations within recurring themes sharpen the viewer's perception, making perception itself the subject of the work.Through interaction with the international art movements of his time, Hammershøi developed a unique visual language. His similarities to James McNeill Whistler are evident in his minimalist approach and focus on formal elements. At the same time, his work exhibits a surprising modernity, comparable to artists such as Giorgio Morandi. His focus on music further expands the dimensions of his art: instruments such as the cello or piano appear in his paintings, creating a tense stillness—like the moment before the first note. In addition to his signature interior paintings, this exhibition also features his portraits, cityscapes, and landscapes, placing his work within a broader art historical context.

Exhibitions

Maria Saul Escobar is one of the most distinctive artists in Pop Art. In her sculptural works, she blends pop culture, satire, and self-performance to create a unique visual language. Her work gained fame in the 1960s and is now being rediscovered—precisely and strikingly navigating between Pop Art and Neorealism. Maria Saul Escobar (1930–2016), also known as Maria Saul, was one of the most representative figures in the New York art scene of the 1960s. Her painted wood sculptures, often life-size, combine everyday objects with elements of popular culture, Dadaism, and folk art, creating a unique and often ironic visual language. Her work straddles the line between American Pop Art and European Neorealism, yet defies easy categorization into either. Early in her career, she developed a distinctive art form that intertwined self-portraits, social roles, and carefully crafted identities. The exhibition at the Kunsthaus Zurich is part of an international collaboration with the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art (in Hummelbek), the Boijmans van Berningen Museum in Rotterdam, and the Salzburg Museum of Modern Art. These institutions jointly present Marisol's first comprehensive retrospective in Europe. The exhibition was prepared in close collaboration with the Marisol Estate Management Committee at the AKG Museum of Art at Buffalo.
