Kunstmuseum Bern - Zentrum Paul Klee

Exhibition: Carol Rama. A Rebel of Modernity (7.3.–13.7.2025)

Dear media representatives,

Sexuality, madness, illness and death are the big themes that the Turin artist Carol Rama (1918–2015) addressed in her work. Like many other outstanding avant-garde women artists, she achieved recognition late in life, among other things with the Golden Lion of the 50th Venice Biennale in 2003. Between 7 March and 13 July 2025, the Kunstmuseum Bern is giving this non-conformist and pioneer of feminist art her first major retrospective in Switzerland. With around 110 works from a 70-year career, Carol Rama. A Rebel of Modernity presents the many facets of a body of work marked by rebellion, radicalism, an experimental spirit and a diversity of materials.

We cordially invite you to the media preview with Livia Wermuth, curator of the exhibition, on Wednesday, 5 March 2025 at 10:00 at the Kunstmuseum Bern. Please register via press@kunstmuseumbern.ch.

Please find the press kit as well as the press images for the exhibition in the press section on our website.
