The Fondation Beyeler will devote a large solo exhibition to internationally acclaimed Colombian artist Doris Salcedo (*1958), featuring key works from the different phases of her career. It will be Salcedo’s first museum exhibition in Switzerland. In her objects, sculptures and site-specific interventions, she explores the ever-repeating cycle of violence, outrage, grief, remembrance and oblivion. Salcedo ranks among the most important artists of our time. Her large-scale installation Palimpsest, 2013–2017, concerned with the fate of refugees and migrants who have drowned in the Mediterranean or the Atlantic, will be on view at the Fondation Beyeler from 9 October 2022.
