Curated from Olena Iegorova in collaboration with FOMO Art Space.

Born from the wreckage of war and the collapse of certainty, Surrealism emerged in the early XX century as a movement shaped by crisis - by the psychic scars of world war, by the anarchic energy of Dada, and by Freud’s revelations of the unconscious mind.

A century later, the world finds itself in another fever dream. Once again, we are faced with a crisis of perception. And once again, Surrealism offers a refuge.

FEVER DREAM is a contemporary Surrealist Salon, a space where artists, designers, and thinkers reclaim the irrational, the subconscious, and the dreamlike as acts of resistance.

Like a fleeting dream, it takes shape within the historic Bar at Dolder Walhaus - a place once alive with encounters, now revived for a single weekend.

The event is a part of the official agenda of Zurich Art Weekend 2025 @zurichartweekend
