The Beyeler Foundation is one of the most beautiful galleries I've ever been to. I was there when Goya was introduced. These beautiful drawings by every single artist were fascinating. So were the stories behind the drawings. My favorites: Lotte Laserstein / Polly Tieck (1929), In the Loge (1879) / Mary Cassatt, El hechizado (1797/98) / Goya, In the studio (1881) / Marie Bashkirtseff. I generally love antique drawings. They inspire me. There were also headphones that could be bought while looking at the paintings. Every painting was explained to you there. Under the specific painting was then where you can find the information. (You could then also have a small brochure taken with you) With some paintings you could take pictures and with some you couldn't. That was then marked under the picture. At the same time there were barriers that you shouldn't cross. Definitely recommended for visitors who want to do something on rainy days.

World class! Absolutely fantastic works of the masters on permanent display, but I happened to catch “The Young Picasso” and it was absolutely brilliant! Students get a discount, however, if you happen to be a returning student and over 30, you will not receive one. I went during the time of ART Basel (early in the morning before ART Basel opened, which apparently many people also did) and they didn’t ask if I had a ticket for ART Basel when I purchased my ticket. It turns out that one would have received a 50% discount for this. How would they know if they don’t ask? I randomly found out through a friend. (Every cent counts for students—above and below the age of thirty!) Anyway, it was good at what it was for. Make art more accessible NOW so you’ll have patrons when we get older. If we can’t access it now, we will NOT suddenly become aficionados at 70.😉
