A profession of faith featuring a selection of around fifty paintings, drawings and documents from prestigious art collections in Switzerland and Germany. From his early religiously inspired scenes of 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 human beings, 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.
