„Of course, even at the millionth attempt, I will not succeed in getting to everything I want to express, but since every minute of life is again so full of new impressions, I never run out of enthusiasm.“
Marianne Eigenheer (1945–2018) was, and still is, a discovery. Much of her work was overlooked or remained untouched in the studio in Basel. It resembles that of a driven woman, a restless spirit, whose work needs to be sorted and revisited.

The selection is intended to sharpen the views on her diverse oeuvre, which is difficult to divide into groups, styles, or epochs. Contemporaries, as well as the artist herself, struggled for their part with the classification and sometimes even with the understanding of her paintings.
