I’m looking forward to this exhibit and wanted to share with my readers.
“Four Artists in Ascona: Benazzi, Bissier, Nicholson and Valenti” focuses on a group of modern art masters who lived and worked near the Bechtlers’ summer home in Ascona, Switzerland – a city with a century-old tradition of nurturing avant-garde culture – and who possessed a shared connection with the Bechtler family. The artwork presented in the exhibition ranges from the symbolic vocabulary of Julius Bissier and the inspired landscapes of Ben Nicholson to the abstract collages of Italo Valenti and voluminous sculptures of Raffael Benazzi.
This exhibition will be on view from January 21 to July 5, 2011.
