Venue

Musée des Beaux-Arts Le Locle

Curated by

Federica Chiocchetti (MBAL) & Nicoletta Mongini (Fondazione Monte Verità)

Work by Una Szeemann

Created in collaboration with the Fondazione Monte Verità, la scia del monte or the magnetic utopians brings together 26 contemporary artists, whose creations have been inspired by Monte Verità and its surrounding aura, to resonate with the genius of the place and its female figures.

The exhibition offers an eclectic and captivating dialogue between nature, art and spirit, questioning the notion of the “reform of life” desired by the precursors. exploring all media and techniques, from video art to artificial intelligence, installation, sculpture, painting, photography, engraving, sound and fabric, the exhibition underscores the importance of switzerland as a home for free spirits and iconoclasts.
