Der Geschöpfe sind viele… | Collection Scharf-Gerstenberg
From 27 May 2023, the Scharf-Gerstenberg Collection will be showing the exhibition “Der Geschöpfe sind viele…”. On the occasion of a generous donation, 30 works by the Swiss surrealist Max von Moos (1903-1979) as well as new acquisitions by Hannah Höch (1889-1978), Unica Zürn (1916-1970) and the contemporary artist Fatoş İrwen are at the centre of the new collection presentation in the Scharf-Gerstenberg Collection. Starting with Hannah Höch’s titular gouache “Der Geschöpfe sind viele zwischen Himmel und Erde” (1930), the exhibition explores the theme of the image of man in Surrealism in six chapters.
