Starting in the autumn, the Fondation Beyeler will be showing the expansive installation Palimpsest by the internationally renowned Colombian artist Doris Salcedo.

Sculptures and large site-specific interventions.
To fugitives.
In Palimpsest, Salcedo dedicates herself to fugitives who have drowned in the dangerous crossing of the Mediterranean Sea or the Atlantic Ocean in search of a better life in Europe over the last twenty years. Palimpsest will be on display at the Fondation Beyeler until September 2023, culminating in a large-scale exhibition by the artist in summer 2023.
