The Soul of Art. The Merzbacher Collection
THE SOUL OF ART. THE MERZBACHER COLLECTION by Christoph Weinert

For fifty years, Werner and Gaby Merzbacher lived surrounded by the masterpieces of Matisse, Kandinsky, and Picasso—one of the world’s most important private art collections. The day the collection was relocated to the Kunsthaus Zürich becomes the starting point of an extraordinary journey: a Holocaust refugee who rebuilt his life as a successful entrepreneur and, together with his wife, as a passionate collector.

From childhood exile to global art patron, Merzbacher’s journey unfolds through original locations and dialogues with artists Sabine Moritz and Pipilotti Rist.
