Art Archives

The documentation: artists’ biographies, press articles, invitations to previews

The Swiss Art Archives collect and make available documents relating to more than 22,000 artists and institutions connected to Switzerland. They document the artists listed in the SIKART Lexicon on Art in Switzerland and preserve a wide range of sources for this purpose, including newspaper articles, exhibition invitations, press releases, as well as biographical and bibliographical materials.

The collections can be consulted by prior arrangement. Advance notice is essential.
