Through it, Heinemann turns to the night sky, a recurring motif in his work with which he explores questions of continuity, imagination and so-called 'magical thinking'. Curated by Fanny Hauser, this is the artist's first institutional solo exhibition outside the United Kingdom and also includes two restored Black Forest cuckoo clocks from the late 1940s.", "url": "https://noky.io/en/zurich/events/caspar-heinemann-tempting-fate-59598/", "official_url": "https://zuercher-museen.ch/museen/kunsthalle-zuerich/caspar-heinemann", "image": "https://noky.io/images/e69477d7f18c92145880b59e50f94bb059c25dd1fc42565eaa69bf583926d133-2000.webp", "dates": [{"start": "2026-10-30T00:00:00+01:00", "end": null, "place": "Kunsthalle Zürich", "address": "Limmatstrasse 270, 8005 Zürich", "tickets": ""}, {"start": "2026-11-06T00:00:00+01:00", "end": null, "place": "Kunsthalle Zürich", "address": "Limmatstrasse 270, 8005 Zürich", "tickets": ""}], "similar": [{"title": "Caspar Heinemann – Tempting Fate", "start": "2026-09-26T00:00:00+02:00", "end": "2027-01-10T00:00:00+01:00", "place": "Kunsthalle Zürich", "address": "Limmatstrasse 270, 8005 Zürich", "price": "", "price_from": null, "price_to": null, "tickets_url": "", "category": "exhibitions-museums", "tags": ["art/sculpture", "literature/poetry"], "description": "Tempting Fate is an exhibition at Kunsthalle Zürich.
