All about art and the Heart of Switzerland.
And like Lucerne, the concept is to
welcome the world in connection with our
location, our mindset.

Konzeptkunst Atelier

One of our goals is focused in particular in the context of our immediate environment and our culture. We encourage works that emphasize the broadening of perception of our society and our understanding in general.

Pius Müller

The patron behind this Concept is a well-traveled, multilingual world loving individual that has watched and observed cultures and art expressions on all continents. He has tried to accept the facets of the world, tasted the spices of the world and is always in search of new perceptions, mind-boggling discoveries.

Projects
We encourage works that emphasize the broadening of perception of our society and our understanding in general.

Be it the “Stadtschreiber” holding up a mirror, a composition of sounds, creating in us mental pictures, or the expression of powerful feelings through painting, sculpture and any other form of artistic expression.

Current Project
Heart of Switzerland
Artist: Monique Eller

Konzeptor: Pius Müller

The final effect of one year of artistic work
– the series of photographs dedicated to Lucerne
conceived by Monique Eller will be exhibited
at the ART1a Konzeptkunst Atelier from the
21st of September 2023.

Monique Eller does not so much hold up a mirror to us. She shapes her own reality with her photos.
