K21 STÄNDEHAUS
The Argentinian artist Tomás Saraceno is currently planning an enormous installation, entitled in orbit, for the cupola level of the K21. At a height of more than 20 meters above the museum's piazza, he will suspend a construction of virtually transparent steel wires, through which visitors (at least those without vertigo) will be invited to crawl or climb.
Supported by: Schwarzkopf (Henkel Beauty Care).

The Kunstsammlung is showing a comprehensive exhibition of works by Alexander Calder, one of the key American sculptors of the 20th century. A focus on the 1930s and 40s will trace Calder's path toward abstraction and explore his contacts with the members of the European avant-garde. On view will be a selection of approximately 70 works.

Turner prize-winning artist and Glasgow native Susan Philipsz is active along the boundary between sound, painting, and architecture.

Featured in this confrontation with the works of Julius Bissier is an especially intricate ensemble of works from the collection.
