The Fondation Beyeler hosts part of a traveling retrospective paying tribute to Felix Gonzalez-Torres (1957 - 1996), one of the most influential artists of his generation.

A selection of iconic and less known sculptures, paintings, photographic works and public art projects from the artist's short but prolific career are interspersed throughout the permanent collection, lower galleries, as well as marginal and unexpected locations.

The exhibition will open to the public and then halfway through its duration, it will be re-installed by the artist Carol Bove whose own practice has been highly influenced by Gonzalez-Torres.
