Opening Ricco Wassmer 1915-1972. His Centenary Birthday

The lost paradise of childhood, willowy youths and a yearning for far-off places: these are the dominant subjects in the rather surreal paintings of the Swiss artist Ricco Wassmer. On the occasion of his centenary birthday, the Kunstmuseum Bern is presenting a comprehensive retrospective of his oeuvre with over 200 loans, many of which the public will be able to view for the very first time.
