We were delighted to welcome Andreas Utermann, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Vontobel Holding AG, and Georgina Casparis, Head & Curator Art Vontobel, to FOR ART.
Andreas Utermann shares his enthusiasm for the exhibition and for Jean Cocteau’s extraordinary versatility – spanning literature, film, drawing and graphic art. It is precisely this remarkable breadth that, for him, places Cocteau among the great artistic figures of the 20th century.
His verdict on the exhibition: “Really, really brilliant.”
Thank you both for visiting, for the wonderful exchange – and for sharing your enthusiasm with us!
