Ferdinand Hodler’s work is presented as a modern spiritual quest, bringing together paintings, drawings and archival documents.
From early religious scenes informed by Protestant iconography to late Symbolist compositions, his canvases and studies explore unity between humans, nature and a universal harmony of forms. The exhibition emphasizes Hodler’s pictorial language—rhythmic figuration, landscape as moral presence and meditative repetition—revealing an inward, contemplative dimension in which body and rhythm function as vehicles for spiritual experience. Curated by Niklaus Manuel Güdel.
