Founded in 2023 by Dr. Vanessa Moos, MOOS fine art is a contemporary art gallery with a permanent exhibition space in Herrliberg, Zurich, Switzerland.
The gallery works with a focused group of artists whose practices explore the relationships between humanity and nature, perception and memory, and materiality and transformation. Its programme brings painting, photography, sculpture and installation into dialogue through solo and curated group exhibitions.
The gallery actively supports the long-term development of its artists through close collaboration, curatorial dialogue and the promotion of their work to collectors and institutions.
All gallery exhibitions are open to the public. No appointment is required. Visits outside these hours are welcome by appointment.
