Description

The December exhibition is traditionally the platform for artistic creation from the city and region of Winterthur. This has been held for some time in an annual cycle of a juried exhibition at the Kunsthalle and the Kunst Museum Winterthur, along with a focus exhibition by invitation only at the Kunst Museum Winterthur. In 2025, all artists from the region could apply for participation with a dossier; a professional jury selected around thirty artistic positions from the applications. In recent years, various approaches have been tested in the focus exhibitions. For instance, artists selected by the curatorial team invited a colleague, while in another year, the museum specifically focused on a younger generation of artists who had not yet or hardly exhibited. For 2026, the Kunst Museum Winterthur is fundamentally changing the concept of its focus exhibition. Instead of a curated group exhibition with ten to twelve invited artists, a total of six artists will be invited. Every two will simultaneously occupy one cabinet room in the Museum Reinhart am Stadtgarten. Hence the title: 3 x 2. This concept allows for a greater presence of individual artists in their own space, focusing on selected positions. Additionally, it allows for a fundamental questioning of cherished traditions of the December exhibition and the exploration of new approaches to promote regional artistic creation and particularly its visibility in the Kunst Museum Winterthur. The list of invited artists will be announced throughout the year. Curated by Konrad Bitterli and Andrea Lutz.
