Museum Haus Konstruktiv’s solo exhibition on Jose Dávila (b. 1974 in Guadalajara, Mexico, where he lives and works) is the most comprehensive one given to this Mexican artist in Switzerland. Alongside selected paintings, a multitude of sculptural works are presented, which the artist combines in installational arrangements while conscientiously engaging with the building’s architectural givens.

It features around two hundred collages that Wild (b. 1922 in Vienna, d. 2020 in Panajachel, Guatemala) created during her last twenty years, until shortly before her death.
