About CINELöwenbräukunst

For the ongoing screening series, CINELöwenbräukunst, the institutions of the Löwenbräukunst present a film program, featuring influential, innovative works that we believe are worth sharing with our community. Whether artist made films, art film cult classics or films chosen by artists, each of these films is proposed by one of the tenants, sometimes in conjunction with the current exhibition program.

CINELöwenbräukunst is an initiative by Hauser & Wirth, Kunsthalle Zürich, Migros Museum für Gegenwartskunst, Luma Westbau.

Discover our wide range of tours on the history and architecture of the site as well as the themes of the current exhibitions.

Tour about architecture, history and art (new from September 2024)

Art Walk West

Every last Thursday of the month, Art Walk West offers a tour through various art spaces in Zurich West, centered around Limmatstrasse. Art Walk West is a collaborative project by several galleries, art spaces, and museums from the Zurich West district. Art Walk West is an initiative by the Löwenbräukunst art center.

On this tour of Löwenbräukunst, you can learn about the site’s history, architecture, and exhibition spaces, and gain fascinating insights into the current exhibitions and key figures who have shaped the complex.

Today the former brewery is home to museums, galleries, art and cultural foundations, as well as a bistro. In the 1980s, Zurich's industrial enterprises moved out of District 5, leaving many factories and warehouses vacant. The Löwenbräu brewery, which had been located here since the end of the 19th century, closed its doors in 1986. Exactly ten years later, in 1996, the Kunsthalle Zürich, the Migros Museum für Gegenwartskunst, and several galleries decided to move into the former industrial building. The site evolved into an internationally recognized center for contemporary art, and its galleries remain among the leading players in the international art market.

We look forward to welcoming you to private tours of the Löwenbräukunst art centre. We offer private tours in German and English.
The team of art historians, cultural scientists, art educators and artists will explain the contexts of the exhibitions and the individual artistic positions.

We are happy to put together a customised tour that focuses on specific themes or leads through various exhibitions and institutions. On request, we can also provide an introduction to the history of the museum and the Löwenbräu site.
