Galerie Bernhard Bischoff & Partner
About

Galerie Bernhard Bischoff & Partner has been a vital force in Bern’s contemporary art scene since its founding in 2001. Originally based in Thun, the gallery moved to Bern in 2005, eventually settling in the PROGR Centre for Cultural Production, where it thrived for over a decade. Known for its dynamic exhibitions and support of international and Swiss artists, the gallery showcased a wide range of media—from painting and sculpture to video art and installations. In 2025, the gallery transitioned into Galerie Kornfeld at Laupenstrasse 41, continuing its legacy within a larger, modern space. This move marks a new chapter, preserving its commitment to artistic excellence and cultural dialogue.
