Muzeum Susch
A distillate of contemporary art within old walls
Covering 1500 square metres of space, both permanent installations and temporary exhibitions of contemporary art are shown in the rooms of a former monastery. The monastery was built in 1157 on the Flüela Pass, along the pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela, and was supplemented by a brewery in the 19th century. To house MUZEUM SUSCH, the existing structures were subtly restored and recombined in a complex form, an inspiring environment for artistic production and mediation, a diverse ensemble encouraging exploratory journeys for visitors and introducing spaces for exhibitions and experimental presentations, performances, conference, lectures and events as well as an interdisciplinary residency programme. The architecture is inspired by nature, history and artistic production. Located in the valley of the river Inn, amongst the remnants of a medieval monastery and set against the backdrop of alpine mountains, open to the public since 2019 is MUZEUM SUSCH: a new addition to the matrix of experimentation and novel approaches to art in response to the enchanting surroundings of Engadin.
