The Collection
from Claude Monet to Félix Vallotton, from Martha Stettler to El Anatsui

The Kunstmuseum Bern owns an important collection of art from the late Middle Ages to the present.

On the ground floor, works by El Anatsui and Kader Attia as representatives of global contemporary art form the prelude. Two side cabinets are dedicated to highlights of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist painting. This includes, for example, Portrait de l’artiste au chapeau à large bord by Paul Cézanne, La Débâcle by Claude Monet or Tournesols fanés by Vincent van Gogh. Landscapes by Swiss exponents of modern art such as Ferdinand Hodler, Félix Vallotton and Giovanni Giacometti complete the exhibition.

A variety of other works from the collection of the Kunstmuseum Bern can currently be discovered in the exhibition Amy Sillman. Oh, Clock! (20.9.2024–2.2.2025) and from 22.11.2024 in the presentation Kahnweiler & Rupf. A friendship between Paris and Bern.
