About

Calder to Kelly
The American Collection
May 21st – August 13th, 2017

In the past few decades, Kunstmuseum Winterthur has established a collection
of recent American art, which is now shown throughout the entire museum.
The title of the exhibition names Alexander Calder and Ellsworth Kelly:
American artists, whose oeuvre is marked by stays in Paris, thus building a
bridge to the French-inspired collection of the Winterthur museum.
This sizable exhibition is organized on the occasion of Dieter Schwarz’s
retirement in June who, as Director of Kunstmuseum Winterthur, designed
and assembled this collection.
