Brancusi Serra exhibition

Fondation Beyeler has for many years been my favourite exhibition space. Not only is the building jaw dropping in itself, but the management keep putting on one impressive and carefully selected exhibition after the other.
This summer's exhibition at Beyeler comprises of a retrospective comparison between Richard Serra's (*1939) and Constantin Brancusi's (1876-1957) work. The relation between the two artists began in 1964-65 when Serra regularly visited his predecessor's studio in Paris.
