Michael Riedel and Museum Haus Konstruktiv have maintained a close relationship for several years. Major bodies of work by this prominent contemporary artist featured in programmatically significant group exhibitions at the museum in 2019 and 2021, and two of his artworks are in the museum’s collection. The artist has now created a new work for Haus Konstruktiv.
This renewed collaboration was prompted by the museum’s relocation to Löwenbräukunst-Areal, where Haus Konstruktiv was able to move into premises in the eastern section at Limmatstrasse 268 and the western section at Limmatstrasse 270, on different floors. At the museum’s invitation, Riedel has now developed a wall and ceiling installation. It responds to this spatial situation and visually interconnects the various levels – from the entrance area in the eastern section to the mezzanine and through to the first floor in the western section.
A multi-year installation that connects the eastern and western sections of the Museum Haus Konstruktiv.
