Exhibition Season 1

In 2024, Muri will be under the sign of Venus, after the almost 1000-year history of Muri and its monastery was mainly shaped and written down by men. Such an environment calls for a revival. The "Venus of Muri" concept uses artistic means to search for traces and make women and their work in Muri visible.
  
Searching for clues also means collecting stories and exchanging stories. Current events are combined with historical facts with direct reference to the town of Muri.

More than sixty artists have responded to the call of Venus and are showing their works in two exhibition phases from April 27 to November 3, 2024 in the museums of Murikultur and in the monastery complex.

The general public is also invited to attend. "Venus of Muri" offers the opportunity to exchange ideas on a theme and create something together.

The participatory exhibition and cultural project by Murikultur is based on an idea by Brigitt Bürgi and is curated by Brigitt Bürgi and Peter Fischer.
