What happens when an artist uses the museum not merely as an exhibition space, but turns its rules upside down? Anna Scalfi Eghenter (*1965) creates surprising, playful and thought-provoking works of art in which visitors can become active participants and familiar notions of the public sphere and community are called into question.

Following her major retrospective at the Tyrolean State Museum Ferdinandeum, the Italian artist is coming to Davos: in 2027, the Kirchner Museum will present her first major exhibition in Switzerland. Ahead of the exhibition, she will speak with Director Katharina Beisiegel and Research Associate Matthias Gegner about her artistic practice, her new works for Davos and her dialogue with Ernst Ludwig Kirchner.

The conversation will be held in English. An event organised in collaboration with the Kirchner Verein Davos.

Museum ticket + CHF 9; free for members of the Kirchner Verein.

The project is part of “Clearing House / Die Komödie!”, supported by the Directorate-General for Contemporary Creativity of the Italian Ministry of Culture under the Italian Council programme (14th edition, 2025). The programme aims to promote contemporary Italian art internationally.
