Room 7K01, Toni Areal, Pfingstweidstrasse 96, 8005 Zürich

The allusive work of Claire Fontaine draws on the readymade principle of appropriating everyday objects and recontextualising them in an artistic context. Claire Fontaine is constantly expanding this principle in an experimental manner. In a lecture, Fulvia Carnevale provides insight into her working principles and her inspirations from art theory, political theory, philosophy and strategies of resistance.

This event is public and is being held in collaboration with the Department Fine Arts ZHdK.

Claire Fontaine | Reading Circle (in English) Talk with the ArtistReinhart am Stadtgarten

Reading and discussing texts on philosophy, art theory and literature is one of Claire Fontaine’s favourite activities and is clearly reflected in their works. In order to share the collective’s background and interests directly with the exhibition audience, they have developed the event format of joint reading evenings. Fulvia Carnevale defines a theme and selects a few passages from texts, which are read aloud to the group and discussed immediately afterwards. Everyone is welcome to participate.

The topic and texts to be read will be announced on our website and social media channels in early May 2026.

Interested visitors can register and prepare text passages or participate spontaneously in the event.

In the presence of Fulvia Carnevale and in collaboration with the Department Fine Arts ZHdK.
