Arts Events
Explore our upcoming and past Arts events.
We leverage the arts to make sense of profound changes and build communities at the interface of science, technology, and society.
Through our personalized, tailored approach, we connect partners with local cultural institutions, professionals, academic institutions, and private sector partners to help initiate and grow projects. We encourage and foster exchanges between technology, science, and the arts.
We believe that the arts provide an important perspective on the innovation, science, and technology that are shaping our future. It is, therefore, our mission to create meaningful connections between people and ideas in the arts, research, education, and innovation ecosystems in Switzerland and North America. We facilitate a cross-disciplinary exchange to drive new and innovative collaborative projects and to drive artistic excellence and technological innovation.
Some of the services we provide to help Swiss-affiliated artists, designers, art schools, museums, and other institutions include:
Zurich-based artist Miriam Laura Leonardi presents her first New York solo show, titled An Exhibition With A View, at JENNY’S gallery in Chinatown. Leonardi examines the interplay between art, technology, and consumerist culture – especially as it pertains to the commodification and media-omnipresence of prominent artists. Discover this custom-made electronic installation.
A sound installation at the New York City Electroacoustic Music Festival set in three time zones simultaneously, Metric Displacement is the work of Swiss sound artists and researchers Marcel Zaes and Annie Aries, and American Brian House.
