Kodin Erb: Curtain falls dog calls

Klodin Erb’s art gets under your skin. Layer by layer, the artist reveals her expressive and fantastic pictoral worlds. Strong and fragile, serious and funny, sensual and reasoned — Klodin Erb’s paintings, textile works, installations and videos dissolve opposites and hierarchies. The artist transcends the boundaries of painting, exploring and expanding the medium: with her diverse metamorphoses, Klodin Erb’s art has a liberating effect.

Curtain falls dog calls is the largest institutional solo exhibition to date by the artist, who was awarded the Prix Meret Oppenheim in 2022. The public can choose between three entrances to the exhibition allowing them to immerse themselves in the artist’s universe in different ways. In the entire dramatic presentation we encounter motifs from Klodin Erb’s multifaceted repertoire: a lemon, emojis, portraits of stars, mythological figures and even the artist herself. The exhibition invites us to celebrate constant change and life.

With Toutes le savent, même les anges, Klodin Erb also reveals part of her unique painterly universe at the art museum in Le Locle.
11 October 2025 – 1 March 2026 at the Musée des Beaux-Arts Le Locle
