Each summer, a selection of works from the collection is displayed on the upper and lower floors. The collection of around 21,000 paintings, drawings, photographs, videos, sculptures and installations is thus made accessible to the general public. Until mid-2026, abstraction in art will dominate the museum spaces. In the second half of the year, well-known artists from Louise Catherine Breslau to Ferdinand Hodler and Caspar Wolf will once again enter into a sophisticated dialog with the art of the 20th and 21st centuries.
