Swiss Artist Ugo Rondinone at the ICA (Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston)

Tuesday, November 11, 2008. The Consulate of Switzerland was very happy to co-sponsor the VIP opening of Swiss artist Ugo Rondinone’s spectacular Art Wall installation at the ICA. The artist’s installation will remain at the ICA for an entire year. The event was combined with the presentation of ICA’s latest Foster Prize and attracted a colorful crowd of well over 500 donors, artists, gallery owners, and other friends of contemporary art. One of the highlights of this very special event was the Swiss Consulate sponsored reception with culinary specialities from all corners of Switzerland.
