Summer of Suspense is an experiment—as most days, of late, have been—in alternative forms of getting together. At Kunsthalle Zurich, 42 local artists are slowly building a show that accumulates over seven weeks. Three days a week (Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday) two artists come to install, perform or present a work, with a toast at 6pm for those who stop by. From July 12, once all works are up, all 42 works stay on view until August 30, around which time a new season and sentiment might be afoot.
