Ferdinand Hodler: Drawings—Selections from the Musée Jenisch Vevey
Isabelle Dervaux, curator of “Ferdinand Hodler: Drawings—Selections from the Musée Jenisch Vevey”, discusses the artist’s legacy and his impact on modernism.
A modern art pioneer, renowned Swiss painter Ferdinand Hodler (1853–1918) created works that range from vast symbolist compositions to intimate, realist portraits and nearly abstract landscape paintings. This exhibition of approximately sixty works, primarily on paper, will focus on the role of drawing in his practice, from quick compositional sketches to elaborate oil studies. Most of the drawings Hodler produced were preparatory studies for his large-scale figure compositions; these offer a fascinating account of his working process, which involved technical experiments with imprints, tracing, and collages. A few of his portrait drawings will also be featured, including a poignant series in which he recorded the illness and death of his lover Valentine Godé-Darel. These rarely seen drawings offer a compelling survey of Hodler’s singular contribution to early modernism.
“Ferdinand Hodler: Drawings—Selections from the Musée Jenisch Vevey” is open to the public now through October 1, 2022.
