The guests are the artist Casper Faassen and Dr. Michaela Oberhofer, curator of African and Oceanic Art at Museum Rietberg. In \"ReCollection\", the second chapter of a two-part exhibition, Faassen traces dispersed cultural objects and stages them in crates and behind translucent surfaces as \"memories in transit\". In doing so he asks how Western museum collections were formed and questions ownership and restitution, referencing among others the Benin Bronzes and a stolen Modigliani painting.", "url": "https://noky.io/en/zurich/events/recollection-casper-faassen-zurich-31926/", "official_url": "https://www.bildhalle.ch/events/117/", "image": "https://noky.io/images/9197060651c05599c9183e6364717344d76a6ee2b8a8ee5cd7b7cf8898bc1b6b-1200.webp", "dates": [{"start": "2026-10-29T18:30:00+01:00", "end": "2026-10-29T20:00:00+01:00", "place": "Bildhalle", "address": "Stauffacherquai 56, 8004 Zürich", "tickets": ""}], "similar": [{"title": "Von Benin nach Zürich - und zurück", "start": "2026-11-02T12:30:00+01:00", "end": null, "place": "Paulus Akademie", "address": "", "price": "CHF 30 / CHF 20 (reduced)", "price_from": "30.00", "price_to": "30.00", "tickets_url": "https://www.ticketino.com/de/Event/217830", "category": "talks-readings", "tags": ["history/colonialism"], "description": "An event about colonial collections and collaborative research using the Benin Bronzes as an example.

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'.
