Organized by Independent Curators International, Meret Oppenheim: Beyond the Teacup, is the first retrospective of Meret Oppenheim’s work to be presented in this country. The exhibition brings together approximately 90 major loans and includes sculpture, painting, drawing, collage, assemblage, and photography, which together reveal the stylistic range and diversity of Oppenheim’s artistic production from the early 1930s to the early 1980s.

The exhibition is curated by Bice Curiger and Jacqueline Burckhardt.
