gta exhibitions
gta exhibitions cultivates spaces for shared reflection on the futurity of the built environment; on how it came to be, how it structures our lived realities, and how it can be re-imagined. Exhibition making itself is understood as a means of producing collective knowledge that transcends disciplinary boundaries. The exhibitions are a source of learning and teaching. They are shaped by the interactions and contributions of students, collectives, invited architects, artists and scholars, and feature newly commissioned works.
As part of the Institute for the History and Theory of Architecture (gta), founded in 1967, gta exhibitions is deeply anchored in a culture of experimentation, education and transnational dialogue. We initiate collaboration between the various research areas within the Department of Architecture and makes use of the Institute’s archives. Beyond the campus, gta exhibitions acts as an interface with the wider field of academia, involving both local and international audiences.
gta exhibitions is a member of the Verein Zürcher Museen and the International Council of Museums (ICOM).
