    Founded in 2016, Zeit Contemporary Art specializes in modern, post-war, and contemporary art with a focus on Europe and the Americas. Our mission is deeply committed to the understanding of art as a complex cultural object that defines the time and space where it is created.

    ZCA organizes four carefully curated exhibitions a year both on contemporary artists and historically focused projects. Previous exhibitions and online viewing rooms include critically acclaimed projects such as Minimal Means: Concrete Inventions in the US, Brazil and Spain (2019), Andy Warhol: The Last Decade (2020), Painting Abstraction: 197X – Today (2021), and Lilt, Joy and Clarity: The Prints of Ellsworth Kelly (2022).

    ZCA also has an active participation in prominent international art fairs. Additionally, we represent the work of pioneering artists and provide a unique service of private sales of museum quality works with rigorous discretion. We are delighted to work with a wide range of collectors, whether established or new. It is our passion to help collectors navigate the art world and discover artworks by established and emerging artists.
