Referring to the address of Cabaret Voltaire – the birthplace of Dada in Zurich, Switzerland – ‘Spiegelgasse (Mirror Alley)’ presents the works of Swiss artists from the 1930s to the present day and is curated by Gianni Jetzer. Taking historiographical cues from the literal translation of the street name, the exhibition tracks art history not as an evolutionary process, but rather as a hall of mirrors in which artists’ practices encounter, reflect, fragment, and recombine through time.
These mirrored realities go back to the legacy of the Dadaists, formed in a city where artists like Hugo Ball and Sophie Taeuber-Arp shared company with modernist writer James Joyce.
The exhibition includes works by Vivian Suter, Fischli/Weiss, Urs Fischer, Jill Mulleady, Daniel Spoerri, Meret Oppenheim, Fabian Marti, Manon, André Thomkins, Andro Wekua, Alberto Giacometti, Jean Tinguely, Emmanuel Rossetti, Pipliotti Rist, Andro Wekua.
