Jeannette
★★★★★9 months agoVisited Migros Museum on a sunny autumn day in Zürich. Haegue Yang’s works are gentle and full of light and movement. Walking through the exhibition felt calm and inspiring, and the autumn sunlight made the whole space even more beautiful🍃🍁🍂
Hans Verbeek
★★★★★a year agoGreat little museum. Just the right amount of modern art to dive into for 90 minutes. Interesting installations. Environment and commerce one topic, another how artists try to make a living these days. All smart and engaging.
