Galerie Tschudi in Zuoz has announced an upcoming exhibition by Kemang Wa Lehulere titled 'What Home Do Alphabets Dream Of?'. The show will open on Saturday, 25 July 2026, with a reception scheduled from 4 pm to 8 pm, and will remain on view through 19 September 2026. The gallery’s announcement gives only the exhibition title, dates and a single image detail, but it places Wa Lehulere’s work at the center of the gallery’s summer programme in Switzerland.
The artist’s featured work is identified in the announcement as 'Izwe lethu (x marks the spot)', 2026. The listed material composition is a salvaged school desk, resin hand and enamel paint, with dimensions of 55 × 69 × 12 cm. The image credit goes to Mario Todeschini. Beyond that single work detail, the source does not include an artist statement or curatorial text, so the exhibition’s themes are not described in the available material.
Still, the title 'What Home Do Alphabets Dream Of?' suggests an exhibition that turns on language, memory and place, and the gallery’s choice to foreground a work built from a salvaged school desk points to Wa Lehulere’s interest in found materials and the social life of objects. Those inferences are limited to the evidence on hand; the verified information stops short of explaining the artist’s intent. What can be confirmed is that the exhibition presents a recent work dated 2026, indicating a new body of work or at least a fresh installation for this presentation.
The announcement comes from Galerie Tschudi, which operates in Zuoz and also lists Zürich on its website. The gallery’s upcoming page shows that the Zuoz programme for late summer 2026 includes this exhibition alongside other scheduled projects, underlining that Wa Lehulere’s show is part of a broader season rather than a standalone event. The page also confirms the gallery’s contact information and location in Somvih 4 in Zuoz.
The gallery’s mailing notice frames the exhibition as something to save the date for, and provides the most concrete public information currently available: the opening on 25 July at 4 pm, and the run through 19 September 2026. No additional public programme, accompanying talk or publication is mentioned in the source material. For now, the exhibition is defined by those dates, the artist’s name, the title 'What Home Do Alphabets Dream Of?', and the presentation of 'Izwe lethu (x marks the spot)'.
Wa Lehulere’s forthcoming exhibition therefore arrives as a concise but clearly framed gallery presentation, anchored by a new work and a title that foregrounds language. With the opening set for late July in Zuoz, Galerie Tschudi has positioned the project as one of its summer exhibitions, and the available documentation leaves the work’s full interpretation to the exhibition itself.
