Artist Talk with Stefan Burger and Matthias Gabi

In a conversation, the artists Stefan Burger (b. 1977) and Matthias Gabi (b. 1981) will give an insight into their work, which is being shown as part of the exhibition A Show of Affection. Following the conversation in the exhibition space, the discussion will continue in the photo library exploring the artists' approach and sources of inspiration.

The event takes place in German. It is moderated by Nadine Wietlisbach, director of Fotomuseum Winterthur, and Gwendolyn Fässler, assistant curator/research trainee at Fotomuseum Winterthur.

Admission: CHF 12.– (for members and reduced CHF 10.–), plus admission to the exhibition

This event takes place in the framework of the exhibition A Show of Affection – Collection Constellation 1. Fotomuseum Winterthur is taking the opportunity presented by the institution’s thirtieth anniversary to examine its own collection, with a selection of artworks by 19 photographers and artists providing an insight into the museum’s collecting activities. The exhibition homes in on the collection’s idiosyncrasies, distinctive qualities and thematic focuses as well as the variety of different factors influencing its (progressive) development – while also scrutinising museum collecting practices per se.

Please note: Due to the renovation of Fotomuseum Winterthur, the exhibition is shown in the spaces of Fotostiftung Schweiz at Grüzenstrasse 45, where this event will take place as well.
