Archiv der Zürcher Kunstgesellschaft und des Kunsthauses Zürich

The archives of the Zürcher Kunstgesellschaft and the Kunsthaus Zürich - from their beginnings to 1949 - is available to the public in the library.

If you would like to use documents from the archive, please make an appointment with us: bibliothek@kunsthaus.ch.

Searching the catalogue you can currently find the artist letters from the holdings Archiv 10.30.30.159-194 which have been catalogued individually. Up to now the timespan 1907 to 1941 is covered. Most of the other holdings are only published in the finding aid.
