The last suitcase
Transit 2009
April 25 - May 17, 2009
Before his transit from Geneva to Paris, the sculptor Alberto Giacometti destroyed a large part of his sculptural work, but packed a few small sculptures in small matchboxes, which contained the core, the ideational prerequisites of his mature late work.
"The Last Suitcase" can be seen as a relic, a testament, the spiritual legacy of an artist's existence, an artist who makes a break for it, who runs away, goes on the run, leaves the country, changes his identity, disappears from the scene, but nevertheless leaves behind a clear, unmistakable message that also differs markedly from the statements of his fellow artists. In the context of the exhibition as a whole, each work becomes an important piece of the mosaic that contributes to the overall picture of the regional art scene at a particular point in time.
