IRL Event for our Zurich peopleDOWN THE RABBIT HOLE 21.05.2021- 28.05.2021Toxi Space Zimerlistrasse 4,Zurich

Down the Rabbit hole is a contemplation of the uncertain world we are currently existing in. It is quite surreal, that humankind is still deeply hungover from what once only seemed possible in a science fiction novel, a nightmarish Huxleyan dystopia. Amidst the uncertainty, there is a flickering technicolour light.

UBUNTUFive Rooms from the Harry David CollectionThe South African term ubuntu can be translated as “humanness”, “humanity towards others”, “human nature” and “a sense of common humanity”. As a title for this exhibition, the phrase refers to notions of community and a spirit of sharing.The inaugural exhibition for The Harry David Collection, Ubuntu introduces five distinct curatorial viewpoints unfolding across five “rooms” or spaces. Each presents a personal selection of works from the collection chosen by five different artists and curators. In this way, the collection functions as a resource that is open to interpretation, with each space enabling works to be encountered as a series of unique conversations.The five “rooms” are designed by RIBA award-winning KallosTurin architects (London and San Francisco). The selection of works has been made by Rashid Johnson, an acclaimed visual artist; Osei Bonsu, curator of international art at Tate Modern; Elvira Dyangani Ose, art writer and gallerist; Burkhard Varnholt, collector; and Emily Tsingou, art advisor to The Harry David collection.
