Giardino di Acclimatazione

As well as its museums’ collections, Switzerland boasts other significant public art collections that are less well known and comparatively inconspicuous. These include the Swiss Post collection, which goes back to the federal ordinance for the enhancement and promotion of Helvetic art and has existed for approximately 100 years. Swiss Post is celebrating its longstanding tradition as a patron of the arts by offering an insight into the numerous activities it undertakes, in collaboration with Swiss museums.

At Villa dei Cedri, the dialogue will focus on themes that are fundamental to the Museum’s identity, such as the relationship between humanity and nature, the natural habitat of species, and acclimatisation: the need, that is, to adapt to a changing environment.
