BASEQUEA, Mar 14th. (askanews) – At the center of everything are the rooms dedicated to Max Ernst, with a very important series of paintings And all the feeling of a mystery that is close and unfathomable at the same time. Works that, within us, we have already seen, even if we are looking at them for the first time. The Basel Fondation Beyeler It is one of the great museums of Europe, both for the Gorgeous architecture of Renzo Piano both for the ability to tackle each theme with exhibition projects that are rich and cultured.
The exhibition “The key of dreams” is no exceptionwhich for the first time presents to the public the surrealist works of the Collection Hersaint. A collection that includes, In addition to Ernst, also of the decisive Magritte, Picasso, but even more than the Dorothea Tanning And also Henri Rousseau and Wilfredo Lam. All in the light, however surprising, even in the gray days, of the Swiss museum.
The exhibition, of course, focuses on the dreamlike theme so dear to the surrealists, but naturally pushes itself further, it moves as a collection moves, that is, following paths that are cultural, but also personal and, so to speak, secrets. To then explode in all its narrative clarity in the final rooms that host a series of drugs Giacometti, sculptures that, really, cross the space as in a vision, that yes, which could have been born from a dream. And next to these sculptures a series of paintings by Balthus, which in its ambiguous mystery become another form of the way in which art allows us to be and not to be in a space that we could also simply call the world. Real or dreamed makes no difference at the end.
