Profession of faith exhibition, a selection of about fifty paintings, drawings and documents from prestigious art collections in Switzerland and Germany. From his early religious scenes with Protestant inspiration to his great symbolist compositions, Hodler's work reveals itself as a genuine modern spiritual quest. Nature, body, rhythm and harmony of forms become expressions of an inner search, where the artist explores the unity between humanity, the natural world and universal harmony. Throughout the tour, Niklaus Manuel Güdel will share the keys to understanding this exhibition and reveal the contemplative and deeply personal dimension of Hodler's work.
