    Paul Klee – the Abstract Dimension October 1, 2017 to January 21, 2018

    Media release Paul Klee – The Abstract Dimension October 1, 2017 to January 21, 2018 From October 1, 2017, to January 21, 2018, the Fondation Beyeler will be presenting a major exhibition of the work of Paul Klee, one of the most important painters of the twentieth century. The exhibition undertakes the first-ever detailed exploration of Kleeʼs relationship to abstraction, one of the central achievements of modern art. Paul Klee was one of the many European artists who took up the challenge of abstraction. Throughout his oeuvre, from his early beginnings to his late period, we find examples of the renunciation of the figurative and the emergence of abstract pictorial worlds. Nature, architecture, music and written signs are the main recurring themes. The exhibition, comprising 110 works from twelve countries, brings this hitherto neglected aspect of Kleeʼs work into focus. The exhibition is organized as a retrospective, presenting the groups of works that illustrate the main stages in Kleeʼs development as a painter. It begins, in the first of the seven rooms, with Kleeʼs apprenticeship as a painter in Munich in the 1910s, followed by the celebrated journey to Tunisia in 1914, and continues through World War I, and the Bauhaus decade from 1921 to 1931, with the well- known “chessboard” pictures, the layered watercolors, and works that respond to the experiments of the 1930s with geometric abstraction. The next section features a selection of the pictures painted after Kleeʼs travels in Italy and Egypt in the later 1920s and early 1930s. Finally, the exhibition examines the “sign” pictures of Kleeʼs late period, and the prefiguration, in his conception of painting, of developments in the art of the postwar era.

    Medienmitteilung, 30. April 2020 Fondation Beyeler ab Montag, 11. Mai 2020 wieder geöffnet Ausstellungen «Edward Hopper» und «Stilles Sehen – Bilder der Ruhe » bis 26. Juli verlängert, «Goya» verschoben Die Fondation Beyeler wird ab Montag, den 11. Mai wieder täglich offen sein. Zu sehen ist die Ausstellung über den grossen amerikanischen Künstler Edward Hopper sowie die Sammlungspräsentation «Stilles Sehen – Bilder der Ruhe». Beide Ausstellungen haben in der Corona- Krise unerwartet und dramatische Aktualität bekommen. Sie werden aufgrund des Besucherinteresses bis zum 26. Juli 2020 verlängert. Tickets können ab Donnerstag 7. Mai online unter www.fondationbeyeler.ch gebucht werden. Die Fondation Beyeler hat für Besuchende und Mitarbeitende ein umfassendes Schutzkonzept erarbeitet, um die Massnahmen der Covid-19- Verordnung des Bundes optimal umzusetzen. Dazu gehören die Beschränkung der Besucherzahl durch Onlinetickets mit Zeitslots ebenso wie eine neue Besucherführung im Park und im Museum mit räumlich getrenntem Ein- und Ausgang. Alle Veranstaltungen sind bis auf Weiteres abgesagt, Führungen finden in reduzierter Form ausserhalb der Öffnungszeiten statt. Die grosse Goya Ausstellung, deren Eröffnung am 15. Mai geplant war, wird verschoben. Ein neues Datum wird im Juni kommuniziert. Edward Hopper als «Maler der Stunde» in der Corona-Krise Über 100‘000 begeisterte Besucherinnen und Besucher sahen in den sieben Wochen vor der temporären Museumsschliessung aufgrund der Corona-Krise die Ausstellung «Edward Hopper». In dieser kurzen Zeit war «Edward Hopper» auf dem besten Weg zum Publikumsliebling. Der Katalog war ausverkauft und musste bereits nachgedruckt werden. Seither haben sich im Museum und in den sozialen Medien viele Menschen eine Wiedereröffnung und eine Verlängerung der Ausstellung gewünscht. Der Kooperationspartner, das Whitney Museum of American Art in New York und die anderen amerikanischen Leihgeber haben eingewilligt.

Shortly before his surprising death in June of this year, Prof. Dr. Rudolf Leopold (1925–2010) personally selected the works to be shown. The Picasso painting Woman (1907), created during the same period as Demoiselles d’Avignon, is a work that was particularly cherished by Ernst Beyeler—and which will now be seen in Vienna. This painting otherwise never leaves the building in Riehen near Basel which star architect Renzo Piano built to house the Beyeler Collection. Elisabeth Leopold, Patricia Spiegelfeld and Franz Smola are the curators of this exhibition, to open on Friday, 17 September 2010, which will show outstanding works of classical modernism complimented by non-European art. Peter Weinhäupl, Managing Director of the Leopold Museum, also brought architect Markus Spiegelfeld on board to transfer the atmosphere of the Beyeler Collection’s exhibition building into the Atrium of the Leopold Museum by means of a few effective architectural adjustments.
