Frank Stella und die zerstörten Holzsynagogen

You meet the show before you reach the door. Frank Stella's relief Jeziory (1973), reproduced at monumental scale, covers the facade of the museum's wooden former tobacco warehouse. It grew out of prewar photographs of the wooden synagogue in Jeziory, a small town now in Belarus.

Inside are originals from his Polish Village series (1970 to 1973): collages, maquettes and reliefs named after some 70 Eastern European towns whose wooden synagogues were destroyed in pogroms, fires, the First World War and finally by the Nazis. Stella worked from a book of prewar photographs by the architects Maria and Kazimierz Piechotka. So did Moshe Verbin, born in Sokółka in 1920, who rebuilt the synagogues of his childhood in miniature. Twenty-four of his models stand alongside Stella's abstractions.

Come for that pairing: the same lost buildings as abstract art and as a survivor's models, which the magazine Rusaccent called "deeply moving". Entry is CHF 15, free under 26, sold only at the door; open daily 11:00 to 17:00.
