Liquid Reflections is a presentation of highlights from the collection of the Anne-Marie and Victor Loeb-Foundation. Anne-Marie Loeb-Haymann (1916 –1999) and Victor Loeb (1910–1974) belonged to the league of Bern’s more noteworthy collectors.
Since 1980, this exceptional collection has its home at the Kunstmuseum Bern as a permanent loan and boasts more than 350 works of art, including paintings, sculptures, drawings, and prints. These works reveal the experimental departures and the diversity typical for the art of the time. The Curator adopted the name of the light sculpture Liquid Reflections (1967) by Liliane Lijn for the title of the exhibition. It paraphrases the specific and unique character of the Loeb collection: fluidity and the dissolution of boundaries.
Curator: Marianne Wackernagel
