The birthplace of the dada movement and Le Corbusier’s last great work, Zurich is a fantastic city to explore Swiss, European and international art. Its Löwenbräu complex, a former brewery and warehouse, is now home to numerous pioneering galleries and museums. Here are ten of the best contemporary art galleries and spaces in Zurich.
