BREGENZ.- With its atmospherically open spaces, Kunsthaus Bregenz offers ideal conditions for a new way of thinking about and presenting art. The building designed by Peter Zumthor prompts a shift in how we perceive art. Art is not just viewed here; it is vividly and physically experienced. Precious Okoyomon, Małgorzata Mirga-Tas, an anonymous artist, as well as a project by Michael Armitage with Chelenge Van Rampelberg and works by the late Maria Lassnig take up this approach in 2025. They invite us to rethink the relationship between humans and the world.

KUB 2025.01
Precious Okoyomon
February 1–May 25, 2025

Precious Okoyomon investigates the connection between poetry, nature, and robotics. Nature, art, and literature merge in Okoyomon’s art, addressing inner feelings and interaction with nonhuman beings. For Kunsthaus Bregenz, Okoyomon is creating works and installations that confront visitors with their dreams and humanity.

KUB 2025.02
Małgorzata Mirga-Tas
June 7–September 28, 2025

Mirga-Tas takes up a feminist perspective in her art, derived from her cultural affiliation with an ethnic minority. Her works invite us to confront our prejudices in a sensual manner, using the means of visual art to create an unbiased and direct approach. For Kunsthaus Bregenz, Mirga-Tas is planning textile works as well as a series of newly developed, elaborately produced sculptures made of wax.

KUB 2025.03
October 11, 2025–January 18, 2026

KUB Project
Wu Tsang: Cloud Castle

Cloud Castle is an imaginary place, where visionary art projects can emerge. As a living, experimental space, Cloud Castle combines the potential of four institutions—Kunsthaus Bregenz, Bündner Kunstmuseum Chur, Kunstmuseum Liechtenstein, and Kunstmuseum St. Gallen. In 2025 the four institutions are realizing the first Cloud Castle project with Wu Tsang at the Swiss sound center Klanghaus Toggenburg. Carmen in the Mountains is part of Wu Tsang’s extensive exploration of Georges Bizet’s opera Carmen.
