HOW MIRABAUD SPONSORS CREATIVITY
Mirabaud’s active commitment to contemporary art goes well beyond its extensive collection. In line with the values of the Group, a pioneer in sustainable and responsible finance, this approach supports not only today’s artists, but also the institutions and events that help bring art to a wider audience. A loyal supporter of art institutions and events in Switzerland and abroad, Mirabaud is proud to accompany the Zurich Art Weekend since 2018.
The commitment of the Mirabaud Group to contemporary art is a reflection of the importance of artistic creation in our society ; creativity is fundamental to all types of innovation, to thinking differently. Supporting contemporary art also means sustaining the world of ideas and the artists who bring those ideas so brilliantly to life. For more than 200 years, Mirabaud has been guided by these values, reflecting about the place of the individual in the world and standing alongside creators.

Through its diversity and breadth, the Mirabaud art collection reflects a pluralistic view of our common history and today’s world. It brings together both emerging artists – including Omar Ba, Antoine Roegiers or Fabien Marti – and confirmed talents like Marina Abramovic, Not Vital or Olafur Eliasson, to name just a few. “Supporting young creators is essential. We support Swiss and foreign artists, acquiring works and promoting creativity and innovation in all their forms”, says Lionel Aeschlimann, Managing Partner of Mirabaud, who initiated and continues to enrich the substantial and living Mirabaud collection.
“It constitutes a strong bond that unites us with our clients and colleagues, who are all invited to share in this unique experience. The collection extends through all the premises of the Mirabaud Group”, continues Michael T. Hoesli, Head of Mirabaud’s Zurich Branch.
Mirabaud has also set up a dedicated section in its website featuring extensive examples of works from its collection, making them publicly available and accessible online for a wide audience. Its commitment also extends to the integration of art into the urban landscape. The dialogue between town planning, architecture and creation contributes to enlivening cities and allows them to rethink the urban space.
