The current Exhibition of Lygia Clark is very special and inspiring, because you can try and feel a lot of the artworks. The Kunsthaus Zurich is a very modern & unique Museum with a lot of space for artwork. My favorite Artwork was an installation from Merzbacher’s exhibition. The work of Wolfgang Laib is also very inspiring! A huge thanks to the whole team of the Kunsthaus Zurich.

The modern art leaves me cold but that's personal so othe...

I paid for the all access ticket and felt it was completely worth ...

Just beautiful. World-class art museum! Two buildings filled with art ranging from the classics to contemporary. You’ll find CyTwombly, Miro, Van Gogh, Renoir, you name it. We spent +5 hours and would still go back to check out every corner of the museum. Free general entrance on Thursday!
