Special Projects

Zurich Art Weekend’s Special Projects bring together a series of distinct, curated formats developed to deepen engagement with contemporary art and its wider cultural context. Conceived as signature programs, these initiatives extend beyond exhibitions to create spaces for dialogue, exchange, and exploration across disciplines and audiences, positioning the Zurich art ecosystem within a broader global discourse. From conversations that bridge art and science, to intimate gatherings of international cultural leaders, to guided encounters with the city’s artistic landscape, each format offers a unique lens through which to experience Zurich’s art scene.

This year, in collaboration with PROVENCE, special guests share their highlights of the Zurich Art Weekend program. Visit the exhibition, events and favourite spots of influential personalities from around the world including artist and Olympic medalist Iouri Podladtchikov, visual artist Mitchell Anderson, and director of Kunsthaus Glarus Annette Amberg…

From artist talks and panel conversations to interdisciplinary discussions, events are hosted everyday at schwarzescafé / Luma Westbau at Löwenbräukunst as well as throughout the city in exhibition settings. Full program of 20+ talks

Zurich Art Walks is a curated public program offering guided tours through the city’s art ecosystem. The program unfolds across two complementary formats, each proposing a distinct approach to engaging with contemporary art in Zurich.

Zurich Art Weekend and Tasoni present a limited-edition capsule collection bringing together contemporary art and fashion. Developed in collaboration with artists Mitchel Anderson, Jan Vorisek, Tina Braegger, Alexandra Bachzetsis, and Gowoon Lee, the project extends Zurich Art Weekend’s commitment to fostering meaningful connections between artists, audiences, and cultural partners beyond the exhibition space.

Available from 12 June at the Tasoni store, online, and at selected Zurich Art Weekend’s venues, the limited-edition collection celebrates the exchange between contemporary artistic practices and everyday forms of engagement.
