Walter de Maria’s space-encompassing floor sculpture The 2000 Sculpture, which was purchased by the Walter A. Bechtler-Stiftung in 1994, has found its permanent home at the Bechtler Stiftung in Uster. 
The exhibition space was specially designed to meet all the artist’s specifications for an ideal presentation of his work: A seamlessly poured concrete floor slab, ideal lighting conditions through cubic skylights and the floor plan of the exhibition space, which is precisely tailored to the dimensions of the sculpture.

Please note that the location is outside of the city of Zurich, plan your travel time accordingly.

The Bechtler Stiftung is showing the video installation for the first time in a specially built, separate video room not far from the two main exhibition rooms. In her work Rist responds to consumerism and to the capitalist world of products with representations of our subconscious urges and desires which create an ideal state of being where the world exists in harmony with nature and free of norms and conventions.

The exhibition All Chemie features photographs by Sigmar Polke (1941-2010) as well as images and objects by Pamela Rosenkranz (*1979).

All Chemie facilitates a dialogue between two artists from different generations. They share a special focus on material, which they shape into evocative carriers of hidden meaning. Unexpected perspectives on reality unfold. Poetic worlds open up, in which the known and the unknown reveal themselves – often upside-down.
