Modern classics

During the special exhibition, we present the artistic position of a classic artist. A spectrum across their style-defining life’s work shows trend-setting themes and questions.

The life’s work of Munich artist Bussi Buhs is honoured at SCHMUCK 2025.

“The echo chamber of the soul is the most important and only valuable place available to us. This is where the truly human happens, where it goes into the depths of the world, whether in everyday trivialities or unique events that are food for the soul. The soul is with itself in the primal human and blossoms in silence. The arts supply this wealth indestructibly.”
