Special Guest Duane Hanson
Amounting to an “exhibition within the exhibition”, 13 sculptures by distinguished American artist Duane Hanson (1925–1996) are also on display, forming a condensed retrospective of his work. They engage in direct dialogue with works from the collection and with the museum’s architecture, while also drawing our attention to the Fondation Beyeler’s visitors and staff.
Saalheft
As one of the foremost gallerists of his time, together with his wife Hildy Ernst Beyeler assembled one of the worldwide most significant collections of modern art. Since 1997, the collection has been housed at the Fondation Beyeler in a building designed by Renzo Piano. It now numbers approximately 400 works from the 19th, 20th and 21st centuries, spanning painting, drawing, sculpture, installation, photography and film. This anniversary exhibition brings together many key pieces and opens new perspectives on the Fondation Beyeler’s collection and its development.
