The Ear of Giacometti.
(Post-)Surrealist Art from Meret Oppenheim to Mariella Mosler.
The subversive visual programme of the Surrealists was expressed in the interplay of the contradictions, with the goal of radically dismantling the expectations of the hitherto experienced.
Today, in a time shaped by increasingly impenetrable and contradictory fragments of information, a new generation of artists is rediscovering the multifarious poetic stylistic devices of Surrealism. Using a disparate, curious and ambiguous aesthetic, they respond to our uncertain and long since incomprehensible world. The catalogue The Ear of Giacometti evokes the main lines of development of central (post-)surrealist themes and is richly illustrated with images from classical and contemporary Surrealist art.
