  • Abstract: Jean-Carlo Flückiger returns to a duo of artists he has known for a long time: Adolf Wölfli and Blaise Cendrars. He imagines a virtual stroll through an exhibition space located in the basement of Bern’s Museum of Fine Arts. Through several portraits, he examines the atypical figure of Adolf Wölfli and imagines the improbable encounter between the psychiatric patient at La Waldau hospital and the medical student, Blaise Cendrars.
