From Zurich For Zurich
Switzerland, and Zürich in particular, offer galleries excellent working conditions for successfully pursuing activities in a liberal market environment. Due to the country's central geographic location, multilingualism, political stability, legal security and a one of a kind buying power, Switzerland play a leading role in the global art market. Furthermore, Zürich has an established and globally recognized cluster of galleries, off-spaces, art-oriented educational institutions, collections and museums.
The Art Salon Zürich delights its audience with exciting and collectible art in the field of modern and contemporary art mostly created after 1945 (post war).
Art Salon Zürich will take place on the premise of Werkstadt Zürich in Altstetten. The SBB (Swiss federal railways) areas in the track area between Zürich main station and Altstetten are among the last large development areas in the city of Zurich. The direct connection to public transport (as well as parking spaces in the Letzipark), the proximity to the city center as well as the immediate vicinity to the ZHdK (University of the Arts) make this location the ultimate destination for our fair.
