Meret’s Sparks
The contemporary art collection at the Kunstmuseum Bern, part 2
2013 marks the centenary of Meret Oppenheim’s birth. As an homage to the artist, “Merets Funken” brings together paintings and sculptures by selected young Swiss artists in a dialogue with works by the grande dame of Swiss art from the collection in the Kunstmuseum Bern.
The exhibition focuses on the legacy of the renowned artist and a reappraisal of her impact and raises questions about the role of contemporary surrealism, with which Meret Oppenheim herself had a very ambivalent relationship. Demonstrating sources of inspiration and topicality in the context of the power of her earlier works facilitates a dialogue that spans eras and generations.
