The König Büro Gallery, founded in 2020 by Susanne König, is dedicated to young Swiss contemporary art. It represents emerging positions in national art; in the rooms of a former Zurich laundry, it presents regular solo exhibitions. 

In terms of media, the program includes painting, drawing and photography as well as sculpture, installation and video. The focus is on oeuvres of formal independence, personal authenticity, and contemporary relevance - the gallery promotes artists who negotiate aesthetic concepts as well as social identities and emancipatory movements with intensity. 

Originally conceived as an exhibition management and art consulting company, König Büro has been managing art productions since 2013. Site-specific projects and hanging concepts are part of the expertise: for private individuals and companies as well as in cooperation with interior designers.
