Fondation Beyeler
Over a period of fifty years, in parallel to their successful activity as gallery owners, Hildy and Ernst Beyeler built up an exceptional collection of works by modern masters. Their collection, which was transferred to a foundation in 1982, was first publicly exhibited in its entirety at the Centro de Arte Reina Sofía in Madrid in 1989. Currently comprising around 200 works, the Beyeler Collection documents a very personal view of modern art and an unerring ability to recognize quality.

| ** New Arrangements Regarding the Upper Rhine Museum Pass as of January 1, 2006 As of January 1, 2006, new arrangements regarding the Upper Rhine Museum Pass will improve the remuneration situation for museums that mount elaborate exhibitions. Museums presenting a permanent or special exhibition at an admission fee of CHF 15.00/€ 10.00 or more may request an additional fee from pass holders (not including accompanying children). This additional fee, amounting to a maximum of CHF 5.00/€ 3.50, directly benefits the museum concerned. The Fondation Beyeler will take advantage of this arrangement for the first time in connection with its special exhibition "Henri Matisse," March 19 - July 23, 2006. Vouchers in the amount of CHF 5.00/€ 3.50 are now available from the museum cashier. The voucher is to be presented together with a valid Museum Pass at the entrance. |
