TIMELINE

With his survey exhibition "British Sculpture Now" MK introduces emerging artists

With his survey exhibition "British Sculpture Now" MK introduces emerging artists like Anish Kapoor, Richard Deacon, Bill Woodrow and Steven Cox even before they are shown in London. As an advocate of underrepresented female artists, MK shows Maria Lassnig, Alice Aycock, Astrid Klein, Christa Näher, and Isolde Wawrin throughout the 1980s.There was also a project of participation in a Louise Bourgeois exhibition with Weiermeier in Frankfurt, which was not realized by his successor. During his entire time in Lucerne, MK is involved in the museum's annual collaboration with the International Festival of Music that features retrospectives of major artists as well as large art-historical surveys aimed at the international audience who comes to town for the concerts. Furthermore, many of his traveling shows originally produced for Lucerne made their way through Europe and even to the USA.
