Pipilotti Rist | Loving Shedhalle—Abundance: 40 years of Shedhalle Zurich
Pipilotti Rist | Loving Shedhalle—Abundance: 40 years of Shedhalle Zurich - Shedhalle, Zurich - Highlights - Luhring Augustine

Pipilotti Rist is included in Loving Shedhalle—Abundance: 40 years of Shedhalle Zurich, a group exhibition on view at the Shedhalle in Zurich through January 11, 2026.

Loving Shedhalle—Abundance brings together fifteen artistic positions from the past forty years that are connected to Shedhalle in particular ways. The exhibition activates the archives of Shedhalle and is based on numerous conversations with people who have worked here. Abundance honors practices of relating and interweaving as an anti-heroic continuity of collective efforts that manifest themselves in repeated or continuous engagements with the Shedhalle. The invited works and artistic practices support each other and form relations without diluting their own specificities. With exuberant joy, Loving Shedhalle—Abundance celebrates not only the archival holdings, but also the very existence of the Shedhalle itself.

Pipilotti Rist's (Absolutions) Pipilotti's Mistakes (1988) is on view. Rist created this video early on, when she was experimenting with the technical possibilities of video and exploited its limitations and technical faults creatively. Accompanied by brisk drumbeats, we see a woman falling, slipping off a wall, and being immersed in water – but there is hardly a scene that is not distorted, fragmented, or played too quickly or too slowly.
