Fondation Beyeler, Basel
Structures and strategies of painting in the 20th century. International symposium on abstraction, realism and digital painting. In cooperation with the Kunstmuseum Basel and the Kunsthalle Basel
In the context of the Basel Summer Art Festival, which is devoted entirely to
painting, Fondation Beyeler has organised a major international symposium in
collaboration with the Kunsthalle Basel and the Kunstmuseum Basel entitled
"BETWEEN SENSES Structures and strategies of painting in the 20th century".
The symposium, which will be held from 16-18 August, will feature distinguished
speakers including Yve-Alain Bois, Hubert Damisch and Thierry de Duve.
Claude Monet - up to digital Impressionism:
Exhibition extended until 18 August 2002
A water lily pond and a garden he created himself in the small village of Giverny, near Paris, was the starting point at the turn of the century for Claude Monet's pioneering development as a painter. The significance and extent of his achievement was not fully grasped until after the Second World War. Now, at the beginning of the 21st century, a large number of paintings ranging from Monet via painterly abstraction right up to digital
Impressionism are being shown in this exhibition in order to explore the path Monet followed.
