With Anker Protocol – 1.0, Galerie Urs Meile will inaugurate its new headquarters at Ankerstrasse 3 in Zurich in June 2025. In addition to its existing space on Rämistrasse, the gallery is reaffirming its long-term commitment to artistic dialogue and the continued evolution of its vision. The group exhibition also marks the beginning of a new series that will regularly offer insight into the gallery’s program and expanded curatorial perspectives. Anker Protocol – 1.0 brings together works by ten internationally active artists, spanning a wide range of formal approaches, thematic positions, and cultural contexts.
Klodin Erb (*1963, Switzerland) combines painting with performance, film, and installation. Her expressive yet reflective visual language explores the communicative potential of painting amid history, the present, and social change. In Leda und der Schwan (2024), she returns to an ambivalent myth and radically deconstructs its traditionally male-dominated iconography. In cool tones, with disturbing physicality and emotional density, she reinterprets themes of power, desire, and vulnerability. Galerie Urs Meile is pleased to welcome Klodin Erb as a new addition to the program and to present her work for the first time at the gallery. Her solo exhibition at the Aargauer Kunsthaus opens in September.
