Review:
This large art exposition hall, on Helvetiaplatz, was established in 1917 by the Bernese Artists' Society. The aim of the institution is to forge new paths in art by exhibiting contemporary art and stimulating discussion on social issues and aesthetics. It came to prominence in 1969 due to a themed exhibition, entitled, 'When Attitude Becomes Form'. There are between six and seven group and individual exhibitions per annum, featuring well-known and new Bernese, Swiss and international artists. The Kunsthalle Bern Foundation was formed in 1988 by collectors of contemporary art, in order to purchase relevant artworks. The Kunsthalle offers public tours, lectures and debates.
