We are zentral! The annual exhibition will present a comprehensive survey of current art in Central Switzerland. A jury of experts selects the best of the portfolios entered and acknowledges them with a place in the exhibition. The result is a diverse and genre-transcending show in which the dynamics and potential of art in Central Switzerland can be seen and experienced.
zentral! is a platform with an aura and a tradition, a cosmos of talented and ambitious artists from the region. For them, zentral! is also a springboard into supraregional ‘waters’. On the occasion of the exhibition not only is the Jury Prize / Prize of the Central Swiss Cantons awarded but also the exhibition prize of the Kunstgesellschaft Luzern. The winner’s works will then be shown the following year in the Solo exhibition at the Kunstmuseum Luzern.
