Haus Konstruktiv Zurich

A Modern Art Haven

Simi from Zurich

About me Hi there! My name is Simi, and I love traveling and eating good food. I like going to restaurants and cafes where they offer a nice and unique ambiance. Other than that, my hobbies include outdoor activities such as skiing, swimming and diving. But when the weather isn't that good, I enjoy programming and experimenting with tech. Why Zurich? Zurich is...
"Haus Konstruktiv may appear unassuming from the outside, but you should not judge a book by its cover, at least not in this case."

If you enjoy art, then you should definitely add Haus Konstruktiv alongside Kunsthaus Zürich to your list of must-visit destinations in Zurich. Founded in 1986, Haus Konstruktiv is dedicated to constructive, concrete, and conceptual art. Its focus on these specific art forms sets it apart as a unique museum.

While Kunsthaus Zürich exhibits various periods and styles, Haus Konstruktiv delves deep into the world of contemporary art, exploring the intersection of form, function, and meaning. Haus Konstruktiv may appear unassuming from the outside, but you should not judge a book by its cover, at least not in this case. Unlike the gray exterior of the building, the museum offers thought-provoking exhibitions and interactive installations. Since its founding in 1986, Haus Konstruktiv has been a significant voice in the world of modern art. It is a must-do for people who enjoy art, but even if you don't, I would still recommend taking a look.
